It’s not too late to join our ONE Sabbath Thanksgiving
In just a couple of days, we’ll be celebrating Thanksgiving, and churches and other faith communities will be participating in ONE Sabbath Thanksgiving — a campaign to raise awareness about the ongoing situation in the Horn of Africa. More than 200 people of faith and faith communities from across the world have signed up to do their part to combat the devastating drought and care for our brothers and sisters in Africa. Some of you may be sharing video clips showing the living proof of the effectiveness of agricultural development and investment. Others might be speaking from the pulpit on the responsibility to be thankful for what we have but act on behalf of those who don’t.
If you’re interested, it’s not too late to join in. Head over to one.org/faith to sign up and download the resources; and to request postcards for our advocacy petition drive, email faith@one.org.
