Prayer for the Churches' Week of Action on Food 2020

Oración: Semana de Acción de las Iglesias por los Alimentos 2020

In a joint message released on 15 May 2020, the World Council of Churches, World Communion of Reformed Churches, Lutheran World Federation, and Council for World Mission underlined that cooperation and solidarity within and across countries, embodied in networks of faith communities, civil society, and social movements as well as fresh systems of global governance rooted in justice, care, and sustainability are needed in response to the global health crisis of the Covid‐19 pandemic and the longer‐standing economic and ecological emergency.

The WCC Food for Life Campaign, with the support of the Food & Agriculture Organization, and the World Food Programme held an interactive panel discussion at the Ecumenical Centre in Geneva on 22 October, titled “Healthy Diets for a #ZeroHunger World,” which was the theme for World Food Day 2019.

Food is central to life and our faith. It is a blessing and a gift of God, in the form of the abundant creation which we depend on for our sustenance. Food is also a reflection of the quality of our relationships with each other- our caring for the other and the sharing of resources and the hospitality we show each other. Food is central to our worship life, our liturgy and the Eucharist, which helps us to be one with God and with each other.
