LIVESIMPLY MESSAGE 26.10.25
‘We aim to live more simply, sustainably and solidarity with creation.
The 16 October was ‘World Food Day’.
In 2024 673 million people (8.2% of the global population) faced chronic hunger. Here in the UK, we buy food we don’t eat and just throw it away. Food waste contributes to the world food crisis. There is enough food to feed everyone; but one fifth of food produced for human consumption is lost or wasted globally. You can help by planning meals ahead and only buying what you need.
Let us pray for all those suffering from hunger that food aid is able to reach them.
Lord Jesus, you understand what it is like to be hungry. Teach us to have grateful and generous hearts. Forgive us when we make selfish choices or remain silent in the face of injustice.
