we hang out with the “street kids” in diriamba, nicaragua every year when we go to nicaragua. as a part of this we give out as many basketballs as we can. in order to do this, we have to have the basketballs. so if you would like to bring a few or even a hundred basketballs to the church i’ll make sure they get to the “street kids” and they will be very appreciative.
random quote – the goal of work
the goal of work is not to gain wealth and possessions, but to serve the common good and bring glory to GOD.

freedom of simplicity
i am about to finish richard foster’s book “freedom of simplicity” and i need to say that with only two chapters left it is an amazingly butt kicking book. any book by foster is inherently prophetic but always within a real world context. foster offers workable solutions to changing from a complex to a simple life. it is going to take me months and months of conversation with my wife to figure out what this means for us.
