Today we pray for our project in the Sasiga Mid-Highlands in Ethiopia. We have been partnering with Food for the Hungry in Sasiga since 2005 and continue to work with community and church leaders to improve the lives and living conditions of the community members.
Here are some highlights from their Mid-Year Update:
Many community members who didn’t have enough food can now grow vegetables in their backyard as a source of food and sell the surplus to develop family income. Men and women are saving money and gaining greater access to loans through savings groups. Gender equality and equity can be observed in the life of the communities through women’s involvement in leadership and income generation. Community leaders and government officials are actively and enthusiastically participating in the development of their communities, mobilizing resources and planning their own community development initiatives.
