Joining Hands

"For I am longing to see you so that I may share with you some spiritual gift to strengthen you — Or rather so that we might be mutually encouraged by each other's faith, both yours and mine." (Romans 1:11-12)

Joining Hands is a program that aims at restoring the wholeness of God's creation and the healing of the human family across faiths, races, and cultures.

Joining Hands Against Hunger

Joining Hands is a program that introduces a new strategy for a wholistic international hunger ministry. It implements on the international scene the five components of the mandate of the Presbyterian Hunger Program as established in the Common Affirmation on World Hunger: Relief of chronic hunger, development assistance, public policy advocacy, lifestyle integrity and hunger education. It also considers that spiritual wholeness is necessary for a sustainable community as indicated in Hope for a Global Future and adds this dimension to the five programmatic areas mentioned above.

Program Countries - Bolivia, Cameroon, Egypt, Lesotho, Palestine, Peru, South India, South Africa
