John Lennon Said It So Well

The late great Beatle once expressed in song that life is what happens to us while we're busy making other plans.

I can relate to that very well.

Between a whole lot of other things, I've been working on setting up a local (as in Madison County in Indiana) chapter of Invisible Youth Network, and I thought for sure that I would have it done before now.

Although there are obvious places showing that it really isn't grand-opened in the style for which I'd originally planned, I believe it's still presentable enough to go ahead and show around.

One thing I know for sure:

God willing and my computer doesn't fizzle, I know how I'll be spending at least part of the first day of 2010:

Adding tons more finishing touches to the website.

Tonight--as I will be--you're probably out celebrating tonight anyway and might not even check it out until next year (which, as of this posting, is about six hours away, Anderson, Indiana time).

However, in case you're in and want to take a look, this is its url:

On this note, I will close and wish you and yours a wonderful 2010!!!

Christmas In San Diego, California

San Diego, California is the home to an estimates 8,000 homeless kids, estimated by our medias.

We have 4,000 between the ages of 9 - 18 and 4,000 between the ages of 18 - 21. These kids choose San Diego because of our nice weather year round.

I am pleased to announce that I have put together Christmas for these homeless kids.

We have three churches each that is going to have Christmas festivities for these kids.   Church buses will be sent-out to pick-up the kids and they will be taken to one of the three churches where they will be surrounded by the Church's congregation, music, food, games and gifts.

We (the churches and I) have recruited several local merchants to participate in this event.

Each kid will receive a back pack filled with nonperishable food items, travel size hygiene items, a bed roll and gift cards for McDonald's and Target.

The games will have cash prizes.

These events will be open to the public and is being advertised, so we expect much more for the kids.

This will be an all day event and I will be making my rounds to all three of the churches.
