At our gathering this week, coinciding with the start of Anti-Poverty Week, Meredith Downey reflects on her personal journey of engagement with the issue of extreme poverty. Her story begins with her experiences living in Manilla for a number of years as a young child to her current role as a program manager with the microfinance organisation Opportunity International.
Listen to this message and let your heart and mind be challenged by the call of Jesus to be involved in bringing good news to the poor of our world.
