We are delighted to share some exciting news in this edition of “Hope in Action.” After months of searching and prayer, God’s Love in Action has found a new home for our ministry in Addis Ababa!

Recognizing the challenges many of our clients face because they cannot read or write but deeply desire to learn God’s Word, we have taken steps to make the Scriptures more accessible. Recently, we ordered and received six solar Bibles in the Amharic language from Faith Comes By Hearing. These devices are powered by sunlight, making them especially practical for communities with limited access to ele

In recent months, Addis Ababa city officials began receiving complaints regarding the work of God’s Love in Action in the city slums. Some critics accused the organization of “selling the Gospel” by providing aid to the poor, questioning the motives behind the outreach efforts.
