“And seeing the multitudes, He went up into a mountain: and when He was set, his disciples came unto him: And He opened his mouth, and taught them, saying, Blessed are the poor in spirit:for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are they that mourn:for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek: for […]
Good NEWS!
We have an address where we can now receive normal sized packages without customs nightmares. (75% of the time, which is GREAT for here.!!!) You can NOT write off these boxes. They have to go through our non profit Charity River of Life to get the tax write off, but if you want to just […]

The Dump
The dump has been an ongoing love affair of mine for the past 3 decades. The needs are so glaring. Today there is a cold epidemic here. Colds, Diarrhea and Burns kill more kids down here than anything else. These kids are all walking around looking like glazed donuts. (Blame Bill Cosby for that one). […]

April Fools!
Being in love with God makes you do foolish, unwise things for OTHERS, IF you love God, you love OTHERS. Ever seen a teenager in love? They do some pretty wild and crazy things. A friend of mine down here says that the best way to be a witness is to die to self. You […]
