Our dear friend Pastor Stephen is fighting an life-threatening infection after a kidney transplant.
Pastor Stephen is an Indian who lives in Bangalore, India and runs Cornerstone Ministries, which is the primary group that drills wells for The Water Cycle Project.
Melissa and I’s non-profit is hosting an event this Sunday to raise money to drill wells in India.
The Family Fun Ride will be held at Three Creeks Metro Park from 12:30 to 3:30. I hope you can make it!
The Water Cycle Project is a grass-roots organization that plans long-distance cycling trips to raise money for fresh water well drilling in rural India.
Please join us on World Water Day (today!), by checking out this organization, making a donation or joining a cycling trip.
Some fellow Columbus writers and I have recently started a writers’ co-op. We’re now accepting submissions for our first published anthology. Find us at ColumbusCoop.org.
We found an apartment right near downtown Seattle that will let us rent for the next month...so we’re doing it!
It’s a ton cheaper than most campgrounds and it will be awesome to live near the city and get to know the people.
And, we get to sleep inside on a real mattress!

Congrats on the apartment. I’m sure it will be nice not to have to worry about 30mph winds while you sleep. This could also be a great opportunity to really meet some new people for more then just a few days, and make an even bigger impact on their life.
I think what you guys are doing is great- I too am planning an unplanned trip.. Im buying a BMW travel motorcycle that can go just about anywhere-- Im headed to AK first and then im going to see how far south I can get.. Anyways good luck to you!!
“So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more dangerous to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man’s living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.”
