In recent weeks you may have heard something of the grave news from Tigray
in northern Ethiopia. An armed conflict between the federal and regional governments has
escalated into a shocking humanitarian crisis. We are hearing harrowing reports of tens of
thousands of families displaced from their homes and that as many as 4.5 million people are
without access to basic food, medical and sanitary supplies across the region! We have been
working in Tigray for many years where our trusted partners the Daughters of Charity
normally serve over 24,000 children with Mary’s Meals. We are now working with the
daughters of Charity to respond further and provide desperately needed support to the
children and families affected by this crisis. As people of faith we are asking you to partner
with us by holding the people of Tigray, and the emergency work we are doing there, in your
prayers.
