LATEST NEWS: ADRA Feeds Thousands in Haiti
The Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA) distributed nearly 13,000 rations of high-energy nutritional biscuits donated by the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) in several sites in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, on January 18.
The worldwide ADRA network urgently needs US$1 million to help communities rebuild in the long-term. ADRA Australia has opened a Haiti Earthquake Appeal and is calling for support for the response efforts in the region. Donations can be made to ADRA Australia by calling 1800 242 372 or visiting www.adra.org.au. Donations to ADRA Australia's Haiti Earthquake Appeal will be used to support the disaster response, recovery and reconstruction efforts in the area. If the appeal raises more funds than are needed, donations will be allocated to ADRA Australia's ongoing emergency management activities.
WHAT IS ADRA ALL ABOUT?
WATER 4 WATER PROJECT
Metamorphic International is a non-denominational Christian organisation that
plants Churches, relieves poverty and carries out development initiatives.
Metamorphic is running an initiative called ‘Water4Water' to raise funds for water
projects in developing countries, providing fresh water to communities who don't
currently have access to safe water. This is planned to coincide with World Water
Day in March 2010.
Church members are encouraged to hold an event (eg. a BBQ, morning tea, etc)
and invite 20 of their friends. Each person contributes $20 and gets a Water4Water
branded bottle of water with a picture and story on it of someone in a developing
country who has already been helped by ‘Water4Water' initiatives. $20 will provide
4 people with clean fresh water for life (20+ years). By holding an event you not
only get to hang out with your mates but also significantly change lives at the
same time. Metamorphic is inviting Churches to promote the idea and show a
video clip (less than a minute) in the announcements section of their services
leading up to March 2010. For more information, download an information PDF
here
World Water Day is on the 22nd March 2010 and events can be held throughout
the month of March. Churches of all denominations are involved, and it would be
great to see the Adventist Youth of South Queensland get behind this and really
make a difference.
If you would like to see your Church or youth group get involved, please
encourage your Pastor or Youth leader to contact Tim Humble at Metamorphic via
