UpFrom

I’m very excited about a new ministry venture that our eldest son Wes is pursuing.  He quit his job last year to pursue several kingdom ventures, including UpFrom.  UpFrom helps teams of volunteers come together to help youth in distressed neighborhoods to find their way “up from” their current situation.  This seems very timely in addressing some long-term root causes of the turmoil our country is experiencing today.  Wes’ initiative grew out of his 5 years of experience helping children in public housing.  He is committed to helping teams of mentors to stand in the gap for such children to help them to thrive.  Check out their video at UpFrom App IndieGoGo, and pray with me: “Father of Abundance, I call down Your blessing on Wes and his UpFrom ministry venture.  In Jesus’ name, Amen!”

P.S. Renee and I are still in the midst of IET meetings.  It’s already been intense, but we’re gaining ground in several sensitive and crucial areas.  Please continue to pray!
