Follow You

So just last weekend, me and my girlfriends Katie, Crissie, and Jolee headed off to Liberty University for cfaw (college for a weekened). We have some friends that are students there, and wanted to visit.
One of the fun activites me and Crissie and Katie went to, was a Leeland concert :]]]]
They where with Brandon Heath and Francesca Battistelli on what they called teh "Follow You" tour.
At one point, they took some time to talk about a charity group called Food For The Hungry. They work with the poor, and those who cannot take care of themselves, and those who are hungry. It's a great organization. And they teach the word of God, which makes it even better. They are a christian based charity.
They have a lot of different ways you can help, but me and Crissie came up with this idea of sponcering a child through them. And now we're getting Katie and two other friends involved to share the sponcership and split the money. We're also going to have a jar at school for kids to donate. We're pretty excited about it :]
We're going to do things like make t-shirts to help with the money, and sell them at some school functions. Or maybe jsut simple things like bake sales.
All 5 of us just felt like its something God wanted us to do and be involved in. We have so much, and we should be giving and helping others who don't have the simple things we have.
One of the main reasons why I like this charity, is that they don't just give the people food. They don't just hand them everything. They teach them. They give them chicken coops, so the people can raise chickens, have eggs, and maybe even sell them at local markets. They give them seeds to have food gardens. They give them tractors, so they can learn how to farm. They teach them how to have hope, and how to grow, and how to be self sufficient. And they bring the love of God with them.

"To walk with churches, leaders and familiesin overcoming all forms of human povertyby living in healthy relationship with God and His creation."

I've also read a lot of passages in the Bible that talk about helping others, the needy, they poor.
I'm really excited to be a part of this, and so are my friends. Please pray that it all works out :]
