Food Insecurity due to war in Ukraine

We also are seeing the invasion of Ukraine result in higher food costs, especially in countries in Africa and the Middle East that depend on grains and oils from Russian and Ukraine, which produces 1/3 of all wheat exports in the world.

Lord, the consequences of war are a disruption to so many systems including the production of food.  We pray especially for developing countries to have stable supplies of food staples.  We pray that food is provided to those who most need it and that the food system is bolstered and made healthy with future-thinking policies.  Lord, have mercy.
