The Vision..
I have a vision for cathy christian orphanage. That vision is to see young people stand up and say, we are not the church of tomorrow! We are the church of today. Young people that will stand up and set an example to a materialistic world. An army of mercenaries that will care more about the fact that millions are dying with AIDS, than building a C.D collection. Who care more about clothing the naked, than the label they wear. Who care more about the starving than their craving for a full stomach. I have a vision that young people will stand for the Biblical truths where other generations have failed. When they are told to sit down and shut up, they will stand up, and be heard. When others say, “It is not your problem,” they will ask, “Then who’s is it?” Young people that will take the initiative and live for Christ now. They will say “I am not too young, to make a difference.” Young people who will have the boldness of the Old Testament prophets and the compassion of Jesus. Young people who are not afraid to cry for injustice, to live for Christ, and know that to Die is Gain. Young people who would lay down their life for those who are lost.
Do You care to Do Something??
Another idea for my home page's text is notifying visitors about the enhancements I put on my site. For example, I want visitors to sign my guestbook or fill out my survey Form E-mailer to answer questions about my site, my business, or my site's topic.

One thing is for certain. In the same way that I didn't deserve to be brought up in a society which has so much, Africa's children do not deserve to be brought up and have so little. God could not have meant it to be this way. Children dying before their life even starts, babies who are no more than skin and bone simply because no-one fed them. Others orphaned through AIDS or war. They grow up not knowing any better. They grow up not knowing what love is.
The question is who will help these children? The poorest 25 countries (according to the UN) can all be found within Africa. With governments that are corrupt (not unlike our ancestors), or debts in the hundreds of millions, it will be unlikely that the resources lie fully within.
Maybe...... just maybe we have a responsibility. Maybe....... just maybe, one day we will be asked to be accountable for what we have done? For Africa? For Asia? For South America? What will you answer?
