audience of one

"Let’s beware of exchanging what God calls faithfulness for what the world calls success. The acclaim of multitudes is nothing compared to the approval of God."  

This came from a book.  I can't remember the name of the book or the author. But I wrote it down and it seems appropriate for what we are looking at as we prepare for mission with our YouthMission:ReachOut these next few months.  What do you think is the difference? -marsha Z

Homeless: A differnt viewpoint.

Homelessness is real.  This family was "adopted" by a UALC family. This video is totally worthy of 3 minutes of your time.    Medical Bancruptcy Story -  A Central Ohio family is fighting bankruptcy while their daughter fights for her life. - MarshaZ

Walk For The Homeless - Saturday January 14



Walk For The Homeless | Saturday January 14 | 7am-3pm
This is no normal walk. Along the way, we get to stop for many different hands-on activities to learn about what it's really like to face the challenges of homelessness, unemployment or mental illness. Someone was generously offered to provide for a group of high school students to attend the event for free, so we're limited to the first 20 people to respond. So let us know quickly. comment on the event, send Jacqui Buschor a facebook message, or email Doug Coons dcoons@ualc.org ASAP. We'll leave from Lytham by 7am and be home by 3pm.(traveling to Athens, Ohio by van for the walk.)
