thoughts today...

"Any romanticized view of missions has long since dissipated. I've seen too much tragedy to harbor an unreal view of the present or the future. Yet, there is more heat - and more hope - in my heart than ever. The missions addiction consumes me. The fire in me is no longer fueled by youth. Now it is fueled by truth."

All the food prep for the handicapped children's home was done in this 'kitchen'.....
A donation was sent designated for these precious children.
Such gifts significantly impact the lives of so many!

When I was in Bukavu,
hungry pastors said.... “don’t feed us”,
men walking 25km/day said...... “don’t give us money for transportation”
They do, however, long for a few things.... "Come and teach us again!".....
"Tell our friends in Canada....we have no resources”......”we need help”.....”we are sure that if they knew our situation, they would help!”
So I hope that when I am asked to speak, their cry will resonate through my words ....... “Help us! Please, help us!”
