| Description: | "When Jesus told us that when we feed others we are feeding Him, he wasn’t joking, and he wasn’t referring to spiritual hunger. He said that when we give a cup of cold water to the least of these, we are doing it for him. Actual water, actually for Jesus. And when we don’t, we send Jesus away thirsty. Rose taught me that to love is to act, and that is what we have been trying - more or less - to do for the last twenty years as a team. We love with words when we tell people about Jesus who loves so sacrificially. We love with actions when we meet new refugees with a cup of cold water. Without words the Gospel doesn’t have legs and without actions the Gospel doesn’t mean anything. In this magazine our team writes about how this plays out on the field and changes the lives of real people who are desperate for Good News." |
