Hope Village

I apologize to anyone following the blog who may have expected daily posts. If you don’t know me, that may be a reasonable expectation. But I am not what you would call normal, average, or ordinary. I don’t fit the mold, ANY mold. When God created me he had a special purpose in mind. And now, after dozens of years and many seasons, I know why.

God chose me to build a village. Hope Village. I don’t know why he chose me. I don’t need to know why. He did. Truth be told, I’m a coward. After considering the fates of Moses, wandering in the dessert for 40 years, and Jonah, three days in the belly of a whale, when He called, I said, “Yes Lord!”

He has blessed me with many gifts: a gift of grace, lots of love to give away every day, compassion, a bit of bizarre, a dab of disrespect, an immeasurable drive to accomplish the undoable, and friends in abundance. Which brings us to the point of this post, my friends.

On April 2nd, we had a dry run of the “A Vision Revealed” program” and it was BAD and my friends let me know it. In the words of Donkey, “Wow! Only a true friend could be that truly honest”. I knew I was blessed when the development team, my friends, asked what they could do to make the presentation better.
So, on April 7, (see events tab on the web site), I only need to tell the story of Hope Village. The team will take care of everything else. This serves as one more reminder that Hope Village really is a God thing. I hope to see you all there.
