  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

There are 20 kids at the Love in Action orphanage here in Mexico. We are bringing them over five at a time to play with my model trains. Then we're getting ice cream (which they rarely get) and then we'll bring in the next group.

HELP! Fasting and prayer appreciated!

Prayers & fasting going out for your prayers & fasting! ^_^ It'll be quite the struggle to get through your time of laughter & ice cream, but with God's help, may we all be able to do it!

(Yes, that was matching the humorous vibe, but I do believe the last bit is a sincere prayer)

The second group came over today, and it went well. Praise the Lord!

I noticed that they were getting bored, but they still wanted to stay. I guess my house is less boring than the orphanage.

We had the third group over today, and an older girl helped with the kids. I was surprised to hear her speak perfect American English (She is a Mexican). She told me that her father is an American, and I dropped it at that. But I will ask the supervisor the next time I see him.

Meanwhile, it was our third day of excellent behavior.
