Are you looking for a resource to study Hunger in your local church? The Bishop's Hunger Task Force has put together a list options for short and lnger study.
There are resources available appropriate for children, youth, adults, and even a few for intergenerational use. Some are complete studies, fully planned. Others are less structured and would require a bit more preparation on the part of a facilitator. All are available online, most with a free download. Videos are available from the Regional Media Center.
Below is a resource bibliography to help you as you plan. Additionally, members of the Hunger Task Force and District Hunger Coordinators are available to offer suggestions and answer questions and serve as resource for you.
