The Shed That Fed a Million Children by Magnus Macfarlane-Barrow

Speaking Volumes Christian Book of the Year 2016 In 1992, Magnus MacFarlane-Barrow was enjoying a pint with his brother when he got an idea that would change his life and radically change the lives of others.

“One simple decision, and thousands of starving children have been fedThat’s what Magnus did.” – Gerard Butler

“Through the grace and love provided by Mary’s Meals, there is hope, there is a future, there is life.” – Celine Dion

Magnus started his career as a Salmon farmer in rural Argyll, but when the Balkan conflict began, he and his brother were so moved by the scenes on television that they gathered a jeep-load of aid and joined a convoy travelling to Bosnia to distribute it. On his return home, Magnus expected to resume his job, however, he came back to discover that the public had carried on donating and instead he continued organising and distributing aid. In 2002 his work led him to Malawi, where he met a family whose situation would alter the course of his work, and Mary’s Meals was born.
