30 Hour Famine

February 24-26 2012

Each February, youth come from all over the Memphis Conference to participate in an event raising awareness for world hunger. For 30 straight hours, youth and their leaders go without eating any food. During the retreat, sessions focus on hunger in all its forms: physical, emotional, and spiritual. Prior to the event, youth groups raise money for World Vision , an organization committed to fighting world hunger and the group behind the 30 Hour Famine. Participants get an experience of hunger and are challenged to go out into their world and help the people who have no choice in whether they are hungry or not.
