Advocacy
In the past couple of years St. Luke's has become more involved in advocacy work with the hope of alleviating some of the causes of suffering in our own community and in other places in the world. Volunteers have written letters to elected officials, attended rallies, participated in classes on issues, organized worship and interfaith events, and supported organizations with goals of eliminating poverty and hunger.Past issues include: the living wage, human rights, hunger, peace, and poverty.

| Hunger Decisions (www.churchworldservice.org/decisions/index.htm) |
| In this exercise you will take the part of a person who is trying to survive in a poor rural area of a developing nation. At the end of each page you will face a difficult decision between two courses of action. Your choice of one or the other will direct you to another page, where the consequences of your decision will lead to a new dilemma, another choice, another page, and so on -- and finally to one or another of sixteen possible endings. The story of your life -- your very survival and that of your family -- will depend on how you make these "hungry decisions." |
