People Who Share My Dream

I just wanted to share with you some people who share my dream of change. They might share only part of it, they might share the whole thing… They are serving God, who they LOVE and desire to worship, and changing lives!!!!

Here is the story of Marcie Little who is working for an organization called Save the Storks. This organization is saving many, many lives of unborn children with their ministry. They simply park their vans outside of abortion clinics and ask one simple question, “Would you like a free sonogram?” The statistics are that 3 of every 5 women choose to let their unborn children live after seeing their baby on an ultrasound screen. The implications of this ministry are HUGE!!!! God is working through these people wonderfully!!!!

And here is the story of Chai Ling who was one of the main leaders in the Tiananmen Square movement and survived the massacre of Beijing. She has told here story in a book entitled A Heart for Freedom. She now lives in the USA, is married and has 3 little girls. She has founded an organization called All Girls Allowed, which is “dedicated to restoring life, value and dignity to girls and mothers and revealing the injustice of China’s one-child policy” (taken from Chai Ling’s bio in the back of her book).

And Katie Davis: who at the age of 18 or 19 went to Uganda and started a ministry which serves orphans and homeless in the slums of one little part of Uganda. Who is the ‘official’ adoptive mother to 13 little girls, and ‘unofficial’ mother, doctor and friend to many, many more!!! A young woman who gave up her comfortable life in the USA to serve God on the red dirt of Uganda. Someone who is just like you and me, but has given her life to God. She tells her story in a book entitled Kisses from Katie.

And there are oodles and oodles more!!!

I have a friend who works at a youth drop-in center in Hamilton, ON.

I have a couple of friends who are involved with the Move In Organization (link is to the Toronto website, but they are all over. I have a friend in Kitchener area, and a couple in the Niagara area), moving into communities so that they are able to serve and witness to these people them better and more effectively.

I have a friend who is serving immigrants in Georgia, USA for the second summer in a row.

I know a multitude of mothers and young ladies who are using their writing and blogs to change the way that people think. They are convinced of the truth and want to share it with everyone else out there!!!!

I know of someone who has moved into East Hamilton with his family so that they, and a number of like-minded people, could start a ministry in the middle of the people they are serving instead of from the outside. He can tell you stories, one after another, about people he knows in Hamilton who are serving Christ through various ministry organizations, and personal businesses and ministries. About many lives that are being changed through the love of Christ. Through these many, many Christian people (a lot of them young people) downtown Hamilton is being transformed.

What are YOU doing???? I want to hear more!!!!
