OPERATION BLESS A SOLDIER


Photo from: http://www.c28.com/shopping/productdetails.asp?recordid=14678
Buy a cool "Prayer Flag" Shirt: Praying Hands Black and Gray American Flag T-Shirt (available in Mens and Womens -juniors fitted). Included in your purchase is a donation of a Holy Bible for a soldier, write your own personal message/prayer to a soldier to be given with the Bible! Plus, after your payment, you can choose 1 of 3 ministries that a portion of your already paid purchase
will be donated to.

Cost: I paid about $32.00 that is including the shipping cost. I feel good to have been able to send a bible and donation along with a shirt I like and I can where for ministry. Also, the shirt is a great reminder about keeping our country free, and those fighting for what is good to do so. Remembering to hold dear- "In God We Trust" and our National Day of Prayer. That we need to continue to prayer for our leaders, our home and for those bringing corruption.

What a great ministry. Keep faith and pray for those that are fighting for our country, and pray for the USA too! God bless America help our leaders, heal our land, waters, and have grace upon us, in Jesus, Amen.

Yet Another Earthquake 6-14-2010 Southern California

I was working on my blog when I felt some rumbling below my feet and my desk shaking. Very minor in my area felt more like a 2-3 magnitude. I gathered my children and stopped at the front door, just like my last "earthquake dream", in it I stopped before we went out the door. Except in my dream, I felt/heard the voice of God telling me to be prepared. We do need to be prepared as this is more earthquakes in such a close time (all over the world too) than I can remember in all the years growing up here. Are we really prepared? We have some bottles of water, can food, band-aids, and... what about our souls, are they prepared for any unexpected events that may bring life change? We got to live for Him. Keep the faith.

6-14-2010 9:26 pm Earthquake 5.7 magnitude in Southern California, near Ocotillo. Southeast from Orange County and San Diego near the Mexico border. More around the area.

mewithoutYou at Chain Reaction Anaheim, CA June 2010 Music Review Orange County



Went to mewithoutYou show at Chain Reaction in Anaheim, CA. Chain Reaction club - a punk like trashed club decor of graffiti styled walls, textured with A.B.C. gum, and curse words. But how nice the treasure of seeing and hearing an uplifting poetic band play in such a place and such a band as mewithoutYou. I also very much enjoyed Rubik, a band I haven't heard before. They were very instrumentally fun to watch and uniquely played a combination of instruments including maracas and slide trombones, still with a little edgy rock and unique sound lead vocalist. I will be checking out more about them. David Bazan also played, a guitar soloist, though not my taste, some seemed to enjoy.

I first heard mewithoutYou, via online thanks to my brother, this song- and still my favorite song, In a Sweater Poorly Knit. It caught my attention immediately and I have enjoyed their unique music since. I love the album, Brother, Sister and the new album mewithoutYou it's all crazy! it's all false! it's all a dream it's alright is very well done musically and lyrically with deep thought, and uniquely provoking me to dance. They do not claim to be a "Christian band", Aaron Weiss the lead singer is though, and their songs have a Christian message with other influences, and a very unique way of storytelling; a poetically lyrical way to reach their audience. At times, you have to carefully listen to what is being said in their lyrics. Lyrics include a sneaky clever fox, a quick crow, a king beetle, "a Stick, a Carrot, and String".

I am so glad I caught their show and in such a small place as to see them perform a few feet away. It was a joy to see their simple hippie styled motor-home bus (of which they had glued newspapers around the tires), and in a simple small place in an otherwise materialistic Orange County, Cali. I only wish I asked for them to sign my shirt! I look forward to seeing them play again! mwY- hope your coming back soon?!
