Overseas Missionaries and Evangelicals Learned Too Late About Trumpf

USAID feeds poor and hungry children in Africa through NGOs and Christian charities.
Faith-based organizations that partner with the US government to deliver international aid are being hard-hit by the USAID shutdown, and are now facing their own layoffs, furloughs and severe funding shortages. Remaining staff are being forced to make difficult choices about which lifesaving programs can continue without government funding.
Two of the 12 largest non-governmental recipients of USAID funds are faith-based: Catholic Relief Services and World Vision. These Christian nonprofits serve millions of people globally and provide food, water and health care in conflict zones.
Catholic Relief Services founded by US Catholic bishops in 1943 told staff to expect drastic reductions in their workforce this year, as much as 50 percent, due to cuts in US foreign assistance. CRS receives more USAID support than any other non-governmental organization. The US government funded nearly half of the 2023 CRS budget of $1.2 billion.
The Vaticans global charity arm, Caritas, warned that millions of people will die as a result of the ruthless US decision to recklessly stop USAID funding, and hundreds of millions more will be condemned to dehumanizing poverty.

Evangelical leader Franklin Graham prayed at both of Donald Trumps presidential inaugurations, runs Samaritans Purse and said he wants" the government to make good decisions".
