We have a new blog website for our Hunger Action and Advocacy partnership with New Brunswick Presbytery. There is still good info on this blog but the latest info is at the new site - hope to see you there!
November 2009 - Welcome to New Jersey Presbyterian Hunger Action and Advocacy, a ministry of Monmouth and New Brunswick Presbyteries. We share the goal of the Presbyterian Hunger Program: to alleviate hunger and eliminate its causes. We are here to help congregations engage in a range of creative ministries to help hungry and poor people.
- Hunger in the U.S. is at a 14-Year High - please share your stories with us - What are you seeing in your community? What is your congregation doing? Where do you see God at work?
- Winter 2009-2010 Newsletter
- On Tuesday, November 17th, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee will consider approval of S. 1524, the Foreign Assistance Revitalization and Accountability Act. Please call NJ Senator Robert Menendez at 1-800-826-3688 before noon on Tuesday, November 17, and urge him to vote “YES” on S. 1524.

Check out our “Congregations” pages to learn more about what congregations are doing and find ideas of what you can do. Hunger Action Enabler/ Advocates, Rev. Marcia MacKillop and Rev. Phyllis Zoon, serve as educators and motivators–we are here to help.
Our website/blog is a “work in progress” that we hope will be informative, useful and fun. All comments welcome!
