You probably have noticed that I often blog about my visits to Willow Creek's downtown Chicago campus, it's because I totally love that place! Just can't get enough of the energy, vibe, and passion that permeates the historic Auditorium Theatre at 10AM every Sunday morning. This morning was awesome as always, rockin' worship and a relevant message (videocast from South Barrington campus). Anyone is free to join me here. I'm looking at August 28 as likely my next time going there. They will be feeding the homeless on that day too.
My upcoming trip to Zambia has finally made some progress last week. The dates I'll be traveling are September 16-September 29. Besides my time in Zambia, I'll also be making a side trip to Uganda to visit some of Bright Hope International's ministry partners, as well as visiting some microloan businesses begun by poor villagers. Most of the Zambia portion of the trip will be centered in the impoverished community of Samfya. I'll be visiting some partners there, also checking out some new borehole wells in rural bush villages. One of these projects I'll be visiting is (ironically) a Willow Creek partner. If you wish to contribute in any way towards my trip feel free to do so. It can be financially, in prayer, or just some encouragement. I'll post again soon.
The Bessie's Table soup kitchen in Des Plaines (where I often serve on Monday evenings from 5:15PM-7PM) is closed during August. Last Monday was my final time there until possibly early October. In their peak season they can serve up to 130 souls in an hour.
Always remember to choose kindness!
