Currently 40 percent of all food produced in America is never consumed. Food Waste Weekend, held annually since 2016, is an opportunity for clergy of all faiths to share a message of hope for the hungry and to take action in all our abundance to make a difference for our neighbors in need. This liturgy suggestion is from the Boston Food Justice YAVs, a ministry site of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) Young Adult Volunteer program in the Presbytery of Boston.
The Presbyterian Giving Catalog recognizes how the power of each individual gift, when joined with others, makes a significant and lasting impact for people and communities around the world.
