"Absolute Poverty" is one of the giants that oppresses the Makua-Metto people. After a long research process of trying to discern how to encourage a holistic response to poverty that fits well within our context, I developed a series of lessons on poverty that received a lot of positive feedback from our Mozambican friends. That material has now been published (in English!) in the Missio Dei Journal. If you are interested, you can check it out here.
Grace and Peace,

"Vathi va toko Wirimu" is the Makua-Metto way of saying "on earth as it is in heaven." Alan and Rachel Howell are working towards seeing what Jesus asked for in the Lord's prayer happen in Montepuez, Mozambique.
