First off, I want to thank all of you that read this blog! I am sure there are tens of you..haha
Anyways, I am going to start an email campaign as soon as i can get all of the bugs fixed and sorted out. If you would like to be a part of that, then please leave a comment with your best email to reach you at! Home emails may be better for you since you can usually access them from anywhere. Jeanette and I are really pushing for God to speak to some people and change some hearts. We long for people to see the need in the world.
Also, this first email campaign I am going to send out is going to contain some very specific data on needs that Jeanette and I do have. As you know, we have a lot of bills from costs of travel and outreach to the nations, and we need to get a few of these taken care of relatively soon. (within two weeks)
If there is any better way to serve you in updating and informing please let us know. We truly want all of you to have a active and vital part in this ongoing justice campaign.
