ENCOUNTER

I recently received an email from Hillsong Church promoting some conferences they are having in the U.S. coming up. Their vision for these events is incredible. Check out the description below:



My favorite part is the first paragraph. It's much like the series my church recently went through called REPULSED. Here it is again:

To be changed from the inside out so that as the Church, we would go out and change our world. It’s about coming together with hearts as one, losing ourselves in worship to our creator and finding our purpose in creatively meeting the real needs of humanity.

What an awesome prayer and desire! This, I believe, is what the Church should be all about. If you want to check out the ENCOUNTER conferences, click HERE.

Kiva

Jeremy showed me the Kiva website yesterday and it is incredible! Kiva's mission is to connect people through lending for the sake of alleviating poverty. It is the world's first person-to-person micro-lending website, empowering individuals to lend directly to unique entrepreneurs in the developing world.


My first Kiva Loan went to the Christine Namayega Group. It is a group of 10 women who sell clothes in Uganda. Click Here to see my lending page.
