Words of Welcome: Rev Dr Kenneth Mtata, Incoming Director of Public Witness and Diakoina, WCC, during webinar on: "Global Crisis on Food and the crisis response: A comprehensive update and discussion"
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.
