Seeds of Hope

Seeds of Hope is an annual breakfast by TEAR WA. It aims to encourage biblical thinking on the issues of poverty, injustice, advocacy and development. This mornings speaker was Brian Harris, the Principal of the Baptist Theological College. He spoke of our blessings and our responsibilty towards others ... pretty thoughful comments. After this local fieldworkers Toni (Nepal) and Julie (Afghanistan) discussed various issues concerning women in development work. This was the highlight for me, to gain a greater understanding of the issues facing development workers, they both had a good message along with some powerful pictures.... not a bad way to start the W.end
