Uncertainty. Dragged-out crises. Division and discouragement. Suffering, affliction, sorrow.
Where in the world is hope?
Depending on where you look, hope can be hard to find. But hope is not located somewhere outside of the uncertainty and tragedy of our world – through Jesus, God with us, hope can be right in the midst of it. In the darkest moments of history, in complex crises and hard places, God’s people have been able to locate themselves in a hope that remains. A hope that is present and sure, even in the midst of suffering – a hope that each of us is called to partner in.
Tearfund’s partnerships with locally based Christian organisations around the world help Australians connect with God’s hope at work in places experiencing extreme poverty, entrenched injustice, and multi-layered crises.
While we can often feel disconnected from and overwhelmed by these global challenges, Partnership Live events help open the door for us to encounter – and be a partner in – hope in hard places.
Join us at Where in the World is Hope, to come face-to-face with the devastating challenges and determined hope of Afghanistan. Together, we will:
- Hear stories of hope from one of Tearfund’s local partners who has served Afghan communities through decades of instability, conflict and disaster
- Get the first look at new research showing how hopeful Australians feel about the world, and what this means for how we can locate ourselves in God’s hope in a weary world
- Pray together and consider how each of us can fuel the hope of others and further the transformative work of Tearfund’s partners in Afghanistan and beyond.
