Toward Nourishment for All: Feeding Body and Spirit

January 24, 2026

Mark Moore asks you to picture your phone at the edge of a table—one bump and it falls. For children in South Sudan and Congo, this is life on a nutritional cliff. After nearly a decade as a missionary in rural Uganda watching children die from acute malnutrition, Mark founded MANA Nutrition in 2009. Today, it's one of the world's largest producers of therapeutic food, nourishing over 8 million children across 45 countries.

But Mark sees something deeper. The children MANA serves aren't just hungry—they're so depleted they've lost the hunger signal itself. "Once you cease to be hungry, you're in trouble. You're dying," he says. And amid material abundance, he recognizes the same condition in us: "People are so malnourished spiritually that they've ceased to be hungry." And he asks: "What might reawaken ours?"
