93 Million Miles

It's real out here.

Yesterday morning, there were four separate drive-by occasions in which over 60 shots were fired. 60. In one morning.  All in our area. Miraculously no one was hurt. However there were two other instances in the past week and a half were two men were killed from gunshot wounds.  I've got to keep the details vague, but many of our students, young students, are getting caught up in this gang activity.

When you're young and impressionable things can go downhill very rapidly.  Pray that the boys out here would be freed from the streets, that Jesus would break through barriers and provide protection, and for positive influences.  Quite simply, the world needs more real men.

 I'll continue to write more on the issue, but wanted to give a quick update on our work environment here in South Seattle...
