In observance of World Food Day 2025, the World Mission Society Church of God has donated 25 food parcels to families and individuals across Dominica facing economic difficulties, health issues, and the adverse effects of climate change. Part of the church\u2019s global \u201cHold Hope Campaign,\u201d\u00a0 the program seeks to extend compassion, love, and tangible aid to underserved communities worldwide, stated press release.<\/p>\n
During October, at the Government Headquarters in Dominica, the Church delivered the food packages to local families.<\/p>\n
The release added that recipients of this assistance were carefully chosen in partnership with Dominica\u2019s Ministry of Social Services, Community Development, and Gender Affairs, alongside the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Blue and Green Economy. This collaborative approach aims to ensure that aid reaches those most in need within the community.<\/p>\n
A representative from the Church of God in Dominica expressed appreciation for the opportunity to work alongside the government, emphasizing that \u201cthrough small acts of sharing, we can bring great hope to those facing difficult circumstances.\u201d<\/p>\n
It is reported that government officials, including Minister of Social Services Cassandra Williams, Permanent Secretaries Kyra Paul (Health) and Ryan Anselm (Agriculture), praised the church\u2019s generosity and dedication to humanitarian initiatives. They highlighted that this donation aligns with the nation\u2019s ongoing efforts to bolster food security and social safety nets for vulnerable populations.<\/p>\n

The Church, led by General Pastor Joo-cheol Kim, said it is actively engaged in the Hold Hope Campaign, which aims to “share hope with a Mother’s heart”,\u00a0 and spread hope among communities affected by climate change, economic struggles, and health challenges, especially in commemoration of World Food Day.<\/p>\n
Building on a previous effort in February, when the Church provided daily essentials to 6,400 households across 25 countries on World Day of Social Justice, this year’s campaign aspires to support over 7,400 households in approximately 80 nations, with a total value of around USD 258,800 in aid packages, as outlined in a Hold Hope leaflet.<\/p>\n
Additionally, it shared that the initiative seeks to assist small-scale farmers, fishers, and livestock producers who are facing labor shortages, further reinforcing its commitment to agricultural and rural communities.<\/p>\n
