“ The amount of money the UK spends On chocolate each year could make Africa NOT live in poverty”

Why ? Christians believe it is their duty to put faith into action. At the core of this belief they should respect and care for human life. “We are all made in the image and likeness of God.” (Genesis 1) By seeing God in others we accept that we need to stop suffering and injustice and protect all human life.

Aid..? Aid = Help sent to countries in need. Short term aid = Emergency aid sent because of a disaster. Long term aid = Aid spread over many years with the goal of self reliance.

What might Christians do to help end poverty? Pray for those who are suffering Support charities like Christian Aid This is Christian Aid Campaign to Make Poverty History Make Poverty History - Click 2006 Buy Fairtrade products Fairtrade!

“Everyone should give some money to charity” Do you agree? Give reasons to support your answer and show that you have thought about different points of view.
