On Oct. 10th, 2010 millions of Christians around the world will pray for the world's poor, and make a collective promise to act on global poverty. The day was started by Micah Challenge a special campaign to focus on the promise to the poor, ten years after nations around the world committed to halve global poverty by 2015.
As Christians we want to declare God's heart for the poor and we want to remind our leaders that action to halve poverty is worth every effort. We must remember the poor.
10.10.10 is an opportunity to show that wherever we may be in the world we are all standing together as Christians recommitting ourselves to the pursuit of justice and encouraging action from our leaders. It's a global moment which unites the body of Christ together. This means that a church in rural France, a mega church in Nairobi and a suburban church in Lima are all crying out with one voice.
Micah 2010 has provided an abundance of resources on their website to help you get involved.
Join this global movement of Christians committed to praying and acting to see the end of poverty!
