Arizona, 1 million meals and Facebook free February

Arizona is my home away from home.  I love traveling down there, working the events and spending time with those beloved friends I have made there.  The event went very well; the goal was met, hearts were changed, and children were fed.  The presence of God was moving, the Word of God was active, and the Love of God was abundant.  

The latest event that I got to be a part of took place in Burnsville at Prince of Peace, and their goal was 1 million meals!  Wow!  What an incredible thing to be a part of...so many volunteers coming together to make an effort to give value to children's lives that they may never meet or know the names of.  It fills my heart to see volunteers moved by what they accomplish and know that their hearts have been changed.  And when their hearts are changed the world can change.  

One other event that I am taking part in is Facebook Free February.  I think I can do it, although what I use as a great connection tool will now be gone for a month, but hopefully I will not lose those connections but rather use other means.  We'll see what happens.  Although as I am typing this I don't quite know why I am doing this, I don't think i spend too much time on there...maybe it is just for solidarity with my friends who are needing a break from it.
