Floods in Pakistan

HOPE worldwide is now a part of the United Nations response team for immediate and urgent impact on the affected populations. We are working as part of the Food Security Cluster. Other areas include health, shelter, nutrition, protection (security), and logistics and communications. Our goal is to get immediate food supplies into the hands of the people that are without homes, without jobs, without cooking utensils, and without hope. We are applying to the United Nations Office for Humanitarian Assistance (OCHA) for funding to do this on a broad scale in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province and Baluchistan Province, two of the most severely hit locations. In KP alone, well over 2 million people have been impacted. Baluchistan is a remote Province in southern Pakistan that has been ignored by most of Pakistan and Iran for centuries. They are in desperate need of help. Though we will surely receive government funding for our programs, we urgently need the immediate funding that many of you could provide to get started right away.

Our first goal is to provide monthly food packets to 400 families in the most severe area in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa outside of Peshawar for a period of five months. Each monthly packet will contain the following UN-mandated items:


40 kg flour
 5 kg cooking oil
 5 kg rice
 5 kg sugar
 5 kg pulse
 1 kg black tea
 2 large containers of bottled water


These few items are sufficient to feed a family of 7 for one month. As you can see, this is still not very much food. But it is adequate. How many of us would be willing to survive on these few items for a month? But the Pakistan people are begging for this help. These items can be purchased locally, taken to the flooded area and distributed by HOPE worldwide for just $165 per family. I am asking my friends and supporters of the poor to adopt one family for one month for a donation of $165. Our goal is to supply food for 400 families for five months in our first phase.

thanks,
Graham Ogle  and Mark Timlin (HOPE worldwide Australia)

Sermon: Touch by Peter Boardman

We need to be in touch with our family, friends, God.  If we are not in touch we start getting remote and things don’t go well.  To stay in touch with God we need to be touched by Jesus again and again.  In order to be touched by Jesus we need to ask him.

Sermon: Call to Faith by Mike Vassalo

When Abraham was asked to sacrifice Isaac, Abraham did not try to analyse God's command, he obeyed and acted out his faith.  We too need to have a living faith, a faith where we put the things that is important to us on the altar of faith and trust in God.

We are continuously being called upward and we know inside ourselves that we are being called higher.  Are we willing to take the challenge, to have a rebirth of heart and mind to take the next step?
