World Hunger
Zion members focus on World Hunger during July, August and September, ending their yearly campaign on World Hunger Sunday in mid-October. The third Sunday of each month members are asked to put their coins or dollars into a world globe or to use the offering envelopes in the pews to make their donations. Also donations collected from the Garden Ministry are included with the annual amount collected and sent to feed the hungry in our world.
Working with and through our congregations in the United States, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands Lutheran churches overseas and other partners, ELCA World Hunger is uniquely positioned to reach communities in need. From health clinics to microloans, water wells to animal husbandry, community meals to advocacy, your gifts to ELCA World Hunger make it possible for the ELCA to respond, supporting sustainable solutions that get at the root causes of hunger and poverty.
