South Africa: Church response to poverty and injustice

Written by Super User 09 Jun 2014

The Warehouse was established in 2003 through the parish of St John's, Cape Town, and exists to serve the South African church network in its response to poverty, injustice and division. They work with local churches in all communities, helping them to implement sound, effective and practical acts and renewed attitudes, to see communities where the vulnerable are cared for because the local church is a transformed and a transformative presence. Their vision is to inspire equip and connect churches to effectively address poverty, injustice and division. Please pray for the church leaders to successfully build relationships, making the use of all opportunities, events and media resources. Please pray for those leaders who are changing their lifestyles and have been equipped with theology, theory and tools to transform. Please pray for the church in Cape Town networking across racial, economic and denominational barriers and with government and civil society initiatives in broader society.
