…what does the LORD require of you? To do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God. (Micah 6:8)
My good friends P. Wade and Joanna sent me to this link today called Micah Challenge. I just want to take a bit of your time and ask you to read what they are doing. They are working in Canada and there mission statement is to deepen our engagement with impoverished and marginalized communities; and to challenge international leaders of rich and poor countries, to achieve the Millennium Development goals, and so halve absolute global poverty by 2015. I am excited about this group and there goals. Also, I like that they are working along Make Poverty History.
My goals in the Friday posts are to highlight groups and individuals who are doing something about injustices in the world so that you can be inspired to join with them in prayer, or the fight against injustice through other means and gifts that you have. I am still trying to figure out what this means for me, but until then I will continue to do what I can to highlight others.
Thanks for your time.
Thought you might find it interesting that YWAM Canada is an official signing/participating member of the Micah Challenge. I was on the organizing committee with Dave Skene.
Peace,
Jamie
