Scripture Union Peru Investment Opportunity

Hi everyone.

Scripture Union is looking for investors for its latest revenue generating project. For those who don't know, Scripture Union is largely self-funded through various businesses owned by Scripture Union, and the latest big project will be a compressed natural gas service station. The revenue will benefit the various Scripture Union ministries, including the abandoned boys ministry. I've posted a presentation that details the project here. If you are interested in more information, please contact Billy Clark at yashmingracefaithhope -at- yahoo.com. Thanks in advance for all who can help.

Short Term Trip to Peru

Hi everyone!

I've been MIA for a while on the blog, but I have some good news. I'm looking into organizing a trip to Peru from June 21-30. I'll also be sending out an email this week, so please let me know before Friday if you're interested in going to Kusi (the boys home in the mountains) for that week. I estimate that the trip will cost between $1600 and $1800 per person, a portion of which is not for travel/living costs, but a donation that goes towards construction materials, etc.

On a personal note, life in DC hasn't been incredibly eventful. I've begun to help out with some ministries in DC and VA. I'm helping out with Daybreak, which is a great organization that works with kids in southeast DC, and I've also been working with the Hispanic Daylaborer and clothing shop ministries at church. It's been a good opportunity to continue hearing Spanish, but I also need to be working harder to improve my Spanish.

One thing that's been disappointingly absent from my life back in the states is the feeling that my whole day and the work I do is devoted totally to God. That's a feeling that was everpresent in Peru. So in that regard, I'm hoping to find a ministry that I can support full time, so your prayers are appreciated in that area.

God bless.
