A recent campaign launched with a video raising awareness for Christians on how to “biblically respond” to our neighbors who are greatly affected by COVID-19.
Respond biblically
“In the face of a global pandemic, what does it really mean to love our neighbor?” This is Stewardship’s first question for the followers of Christ. The Christian Charity Organization has seen the desperate cry in many countries impacted by the pandemic. Thus, calling for a united response from God’s people around the world.
“A second wave from the scientists is what expected. And though some of us here are protected, there are thousands across the world that are neglected.” The video showed an African man delivering a poetic awareness for the Church.
“Communities disconnected, parents rejected, and children unprotected. All because they don’t have masks or sanitizers to be disinfected,” he continued.
“So for this to change, we need to get connected. God’s people, us the Church, have to come together and say ‘challenge accepted’.”
He further noted how the people in some areas struggle to meet their daily needs, and the pandemic has only worsened their situation.
Love your neighbor
“We believe a global issue demands a biblical response. Like love your neighbor as it is because of love Jesus became our Savior. Help those who were in need then those who are chained by illnesses and poverty can be freed.”
He continues to exhort to be a “delightful giver.” “Because it’s time for us to no longer observe but to stand up and serve. It’s time for all of us to give so that others can continue to live.”
“As one people, as one Body, we can unite our forces to make sure every country has the resources to beat this virus.”
Apparently, Stewardship partners with different organizations that have the same goal to develop communities and empower people. Some of these are Tearfund, World Vision, Open Doors, and Trust Bridge Global.
