She’s a lot of fun to read about – she has travelled extensively and is enthusiastic about what she has seen and about learning about other places.

She enjoys chocolate and potato chips!

Can you ask for more?

She loves her country and is proud of it. She is studying and learning another language which I would find hard to do.

She is the kind of person who is kindhearted.

She is a kind and thoughtful person, intelligent and hardworking. I have seen her grow in skill and knowledge while we have gone through our doctorates together!

I have enjoyed and learned much from his books and from films of real-life interactions in therapy as he has worked with clients. I have heard that he suffered a serious stroke and is no longer writing or in practice. He has given a legacy to therapists and clients everywhere… His books and tapes have shown me how human psychotherapy can (should) be and how the relationship between the therapist and client is the key tool to change and growth..

She and I seem to share a number of interests which is neat since we live in different countries and have never really met. It has been fun to get to know her online!

Beyond Borders: Working in Haiti for Justice and Peace, Out of Devotion to Christ

Although the U.S. and Haiti are separated by a flight of less than two hours, the economic distance between them could hardly be greater. The gap between these neighboring nations mirrors the growing gulf between the privileged and powerless worldwide and testifies to the brokenness and injustice of our world.

It is across this great chasm that Beyond Borders works, building understanding and solidarity between the wealthy and the poor. As we do, we discover a surprising truth, that the materially poor are often spiritually & culturally rich while the wealthy are often poor in non-material ways. We all grow richer, though, when we reach beyond what divides us. Together we find new meaning for our lives and the strength to build a world where God’s peace and justice reign.

Mission Year

LOVE GOD / LOVE PEOPLE // NOTHING ELSE MATTERS

Mission Year is a radical opportunity for Christian young people to put into practice the simplest and most important commandment of Jesus: “Love the Lord your God, and love your neighbor as yourself.” By living and working for a year in a poor, urban neighborhood, partnering with a local church, volunteering at a social service agency, and spending time with neighbors, our Mission Year team members effectively impact their communities while catching a deeper vision for what the Kingdom of God is like.

UrbanPromise

The CamdenForward School educates Camden’s children in an environment rich in love, hope, structure, order and competence leading to high academic achievement, spiritual growth, and the development of strong Christian character.

The CamdenForward School opened in the fall of 1997 with just one class each of pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten. Each year since then, the school has added a new grade and will continue to do so until it is able to provide a quality private school education to students from pre-Kindergarten through 8th grade.

It costs roughly $5,000 a year to provide a child with schooling.
Each child receives a scholarship, and their parents are asked to pay $50 a month for their child to attend school. Since the CamdenForward School receives no government funding, the remaining amount is met through partnerships with individuals, churches, corporations, and foundations who are willing to give time and money to help provide the best possible education for all students.
