I really love the picture of the children attached to your report and the smiles on everyONE's faces. I think that this is also a great place to encourage ONE supporters to bring the message of ONE and our movement to end extreme poverty to their places of worship because of the deep Faith connection to "doing good" to others and of helping the poor. Last Sunday (18 November), I had the privilege of staffing a ONE outreach booth at our local Interfaith Thanksgiving Prayer Service. This annual event is the largest interfaith event in my area (Austin TX) during the entire year. I had a good supply of ONE Sabbath info for people to pick up and take back to their centers of worship. I told them that even if they could not participate in a ONE Sabbath activity for the Thanksgiving weekend, that they can still get involved in our movement to end extreme poverty by contacting ONE and arranging a ONE worship service/event at their place of worship in the future. I collected another ninety signatures on ONE petitions and felt grateful to have finally been able to bring the message of ONE to our largest Interfaith gathering of the year here in central Texas right on the eve of the Presidential Primary activities in my state early next year. Take very good care of each other. Blessings are always around.~ AS ONE, debbie :) Thanks, Elise, for your report from the African Children’s Choir performance in Ames, Iowa, recently.
