As a Christian organization, we can help them through this difficult time. For the last 2,000 years, what they are looking for has been called the "kingdom of God." It is something to obtain in the future, but it also something here now. It is a reference to Jesus but is also within those who follow Him. Helping people find that kingdom of God is the other half of what we do. So the answer to my question is simple: CURE International, healing the sick and proclaiming the kingdom of God. That's our mission!
