Walking Together in Hope: Day 4 of #MGC2025 ✨ Day 4 explored funding, partnerships, and storytelling as tools for sustaining impact. Sticky-note reflections reminded us to see how God has been moving over decades and how partnerships can flourish. #walkingtogetherinhope #MicahGlobal

At #MGC2025 we encounter so many inspiring faith-based actors driving change. Real impact comes from consistent, intentional actions. Together, we can build something that lasts. 💚 #micahglobal #walkingtogetherinhope

On Day 2 of #MGC2025, Tabeth explored how faith communities resist erasure and reclaim memory. From Ndabeni and Langa’s displacement to St Mark’s Church in District 6 and Eziko Cooking School training youth, resistance is memory, presence, and creating life-giving alternatives.

Can two people walk together without agreeing? At the Micah Global Consultation, this question stayed with us. Partnership is about walking side by side with respect, humility, and shared purpose, valuing diverse voices and local expertise. #walkingtogetherinhope #MGC2025 #MicahGlobal

Speakers are reminding us that ‘we have fewer resources’ but perhaps we need to be asking why? #EHF2025
