> I recently read two news stories about food. In Ireland, only one story was a headline but both stories centred around access to food. Each year there is a report which identifies how countries rank in terms of food security. The 2022 Global Food Security Index1 ranks Ireland as number two, out of one-hundred thirteen countries assessed, in four categories that contribute to an overall score. Last year, Ireland was ranked as number one.

A number of churches and organisations are joining together for a day of prayer and fasting on Sunday, 2nd January 2022.  When I was contacted and asked if Tearfund Ireland would consider supporting this endeavour, my decision was immediate.  Yes, we will support it.
