Beauty: Moving From Hunger to Hope

Last week we had an incredible thing happen. Here is the back story. Over 2 years ago, I shared with Michelle that I wanted to be able to send every Oak Ridge Elementary student home on Friday with enough food to feed their family over the 48 hour weekend. The problem is that 452 students represents approximately 2000 people.

Last Thursday, Michelle was asked to meet with the great folks at the Sacramento Food Bank. These incredible people have shared the same vision but didn't have the mechanism to disseminate the food. We didn't have the food. Together, we are stronger.

The beautiful people of Oak Park are often under nourished. We hold in our hand the ability to serve...to give...to go.

We have the ability to do it because it is the right thing with no other motive.



Imagine the impact when we launch this on October 16th. On this day, we will do our first distribution. We need volunteers to have a passion to pursue this monumental feat of sheer logistics.

It is possible.

Much hope. More love.

Hope Bends History

Friends.

Life is a series of steps that have the potential to bend history. These moments we can choose to impact in realms our feet have never set foot. My friend Eric Hogue just returned from the Pacific Rim. China, Phillipines, and other Asian cultures are wanting to learn. In China, they are hungry to fill the void that was left when the Red Book lost its influence.

You can be a part and it will take 3 minutes. Each of us can send Bibles to SE Asia today and tomorrow. Here is how. Call 1-800-YES-WORD to send them Bibles.

When you call, say Eric Hogue Project when you call. This will assure that the Scripture hits the villages that Eric just returned from.

Life at $4 a book.

Place the book in their hands.

Peace.
