Buckner in Honduras...

Things are progressing with the shoe drive. These kinds of activities can so easily become just another thing to do. I read an article on Buckner's site the other day that reminded me of the reason we're doing the drive...reminded me that what we're doing really is going to change lives.

Honduras Ready for Buckner Aid

Talking to a member of the youth group last night, I got a glimpse into another heart for service. Zannie was planning on school-related trip to Europe--she decided not to go, not just because of the money. She said she'd rather give the time/effort/money to helping others. Cool, huh? From a high school junior.

Love God, Love people. Isn't that Christ's command? But doing so will require getting off our collective butt and acting on behalf of others.
