Luke 24:13-32
This is Jesus heartburn(I have to credit Dallas Willard for this term!)...31 Then their eyes were opened and they recognized him, and he disappeared from their sight. 32 They asked each other, "Were not our hearts burning within us while he talked with us on the road and opened the Scriptures to us?"

Will you help?

We need your help to save orphaned children like Lucy!

I have the wonderful opportunity to travel to Sierra Leone in September with my friends from The Raining Season. The Raining Season is a licensed 501(c)3 non-profit organization with an office in Sartell, MN and Nashville, TN. Our mission is to provide a hopeful future to orphaned children and impoverished families in Sierra Leone, West Africa through meeting basic needs including housing, nourishment, education and small business grants.


Our latest project is to open an orphanage this September for 86 orphaned children The Raining Season found on a trip earlier this year. The center will be called, "The Covering". All the children we are working for are in grave danger due to malnutrition, lack of clean water and current disease so the situation is urgent. Last January when The Raining Season arrived, one 2 year old boy weighed only 9 pounds and was in the last stage of starvation.


I am excited about the chance to go and love on these babies and help with setting up housing, providing water & food, getting medical care, and finding caretakers for these children. I am also excited about the chance to love these babies. I need your help to make this happen. So, for the sake of them, I am asking you to help me go. If each of you donate $10-$20 towards travel expenses and The Raining Season, you'll be a part of making the lives of children in Sierra Leone better.


Your donations are tax-exempt and can be given online through paypal.


If you prefer to send a check (or are donating more than $50) please send your donations to The Raining Season at with my name in the memo.
