In Mission Together Uses New Media to Connect People
I sent Patrick Friday an email, suggesting
that
we meet for breakfast in the cafeteria for a
conversation about social media and mission.
Patrick suggested, instead, we should chat, pray,
and invite others to join us at a Google+ "hang
out."
A couple of emails later, Patrick and I logged on
to Google+ for our "hang out," a four-way
videoconference with Patti Bacher in De Pere,
Wisconsin, and Mi Rhang Baek in Madison,
Alabama.

Nashville to Malawi: An Expanding Mission Partnership
The hymn says, blessed be the tie that binds,
but ties in Christian mission can also expand.
Growing stronger is perhaps the best way to
describe a mission partnership between a United
Methodist congregation in Nashville, Tennessee,
and the denomination’s Malawi Missionary
Conference in central Africa.

Impact Of AIDS Worsens African Famine
"The famine in southern Africa brings the world
face-to-face with the deep and devastating impact
of AIDS," said Dr Peter Piot, Executive Director
of UNAIDS. "What we are seeing today in a number
of countries of sub-Saharan Africa is an HIV
epidemic that is overwhelming the coping
resources of entire communities. We must act now,
on a much larger scale than anything we have done
before, not only to assist those nations already
hard-hit, but also to stop the explosive growth
of AIDS in the parts of the world where the
epidemic is newly emerging."

Churchwide Appeal for Southern Africa Famine
Dear Sisters and Brothers in Faith, Southern
Africa is on the verge of a severe famine. The
pictures we are familiar with from famines past
have not made their way onto our television
screens, newspapers, and internet newsites. The
food shortage in Southern Africa is not getting
the media coverage a disaster of this proportion
calls for. The United Nations World Food Program
reports 7.7 million people in Lesotho, Malawi,
Mozambique, Swaziland, Zambia and Zimbabwe
require immediate food assistance. People are
facing starvation in Angola and Namibia as well.

More than 300 people have starved to death in
Malawi's central and northern regions because of
a famine that has been described as the worst in
the last 50 years, according to reports from the

with women and children in rural areas suffering
the most. The villagers are eating wild seeds as
a supplement to their diminishing stock of maize.
