Leading and speaking

'Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute.'

Proverbs 31:7-9

The Bible is unswerving about our duty as members of the local church when it comes to poverty and injustice - we need to speak up. Find what you need to get the word out in your church here.

We'd love to hear what you think of the new churches section of the website. If you have time, please fill in this short questionnaire, or email your comments to churches@tearfund.org

Have a look at our resources designed to help your church pray, campaign and give. Latest packs: the harvest church pack Be part of a miracle; Freedom, marking 200 years since the abolition of the slave trade, covering human trafficking - modern day slavery; Work a miracle - stopping the spread of HIV.
There are people in your area who can support you as you mobilise your church to combat poverty and injustice. You might like to talk through your service plans with someone, or one of our trained volunteer speakers could come along to your service. Or you might like to find out about events happening near you to help inspire and inform you. 
As we stand together in prayer with those working around the world, here are some prayers and reflections to help you in your service, and information on how to sign up for our regular prayer bulletins that will keep you in touch with the latest news.

Tips on speaking about Tearfund in your church, and a selection of quotes help you in your talk.
Photo: Marcus Perkins/TearfundThere is a time for everything. A time to kneel and a time to stand, a time to pray and a time to talk. But there is never a time to look the other way. Get the new resource for your church and inspire them to commit to pray for an end to poverty in our world.

We are Christians passionate about the local church bringing justice and transforming lives - overcoming global poverty.
So our ten-year vision is to see 50 million people released from material and spiritual poverty through a worldwide network of 100,000 local churches.
