no matter how little the effort, no matter the donation amount, no matter our wallet size, no matter how small the change... when our hearts are in it to winit & we're consistent, that small change can make a big change ;)
this blog is dedicated for those who support the mission & cause of not Bruce & JP, but for the cause of Christ~ being his hands & feet in the world is a big mission, and it always starts with the individual(s).
no need for piety or self-righteousness here, but the calling is "to do justly, love mercy, & walk humbly before our God"
my brother (inChrist) Bruce & i will be going on a missions trip to Santo Domingo inthe Dominican Republic from July 25th to the 30th, & stepping out the comfort zone and financial security America promises or urgency to pursue that security that American claims or promotes.... is as u can imagine hard to accomplish...
as much as our hearts are proclaiming "YESSS, I WILL GO"... our wallets are proclaiming, "NOOOO U WILL NOTTT"...
but to be held down by something as weightless as money, is a pity/shame, nonetheless reality...
and so, Bruce & i hope to live above the influence and popular belief and BE BOLD FOR CHRIST!
we went into the subways of NYC July 14th, utilizing the gifts&talents God has given us to make ends meet :)
and the lovely ppl of NYC contributed nearly $100 in less than 3 hours! simply amazing :)
as we went around the West Side along the red & blue line, we presented our cause and mission of these 2 broke college students, some were more than willing and amiable in every way... of course others glared & judged... but we brush the dust off our feet and move forward ;)
as we pleaded & encouraged the ppl of NYC to partner w us with as little as 1 cent... our attitude of gratitude put a smile to many faces in hopes that they would understand....... that small change can really make a big change :)

"How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them? And how can anyone preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!”
Romans 10:14-15
