Importance of Nutrition: How we get our people the food they need.

Our Uganda Team gave us a much needed praise report yesterday that we are excited to share. They have made great progress on the water project, getting everyone closer to providing clean water for the church facility to help support over 500 people every week, as well as ensure they have water for the farm to grow the necessary crops and ensure were able to get our Meals of Hope out to everyone.

Thanks to the support of our Generous donors, the Anchored team was able to set up multiple Meals of Hope to help the village for a while.
Water Project is coming along great. Hopefully soone they will not need to travel long distances to get clean drinking water for the village.

One thing that very few people think about in the West is how difficult it has been to get proper nutrition throughout the history of man. It was really only in the past 100 years that food became so readily available to eat for people in the Western world. Yet in most of the world, daily nutritional needs are an almost impossible task. Many foods in abundance here are scarce in the rest of the world, and it is much harder to properly store and care for food when there is little power to run electricity to a refrigerator. The worst hit are the young children, who grow up malnourished and have multiple health problems down the line. While feeding is a crucial life saving need, proper nutrition actually helps them to grow and thrive in the future.

Blessed be the Lord, that we were able to distribute these packages of food the Anchor of Hope team was able to prepare and formulate locally to help those in need.
Each bag is formulated with local ingredients to help ensure proper nutrition to those who need it.

Fortunately, there are ways that the missionary team does to help meet these needs. Thanks to the generousity of our donors, we were able to afford several dehydration machines. Thanks to these dehydration machines, we are able to take the food and ensure its long lasting use and storage for when they need it most.

One of our Faith Comes by Hearing listening groups, discussing and listening to 1 Timothy 3. It has been a blessing for our team to look after and witness the love and fellowship between each of them.

The Anchor of Hope team is still hard at work, helping the villagers and preparing for the Ebola outbreak, but in these dark times, God is still faithful to His people. As always, it’s supporters of the ministry like you who give us the support we need to continue to spread the Gospel into the whole world. We thank you all for your continued support.
