Please pray for our community, Jesus People. Yesterday, two people got into a pretty bad fight over the general email (email that goes out to all the members of the community). I don't get the general email so I haven't read it, but I heard that I lost of really dumb are hurtful things were said... Please pray for the man, M., and his wife and the woman, R., and her husband and all the rest of the community, cuz a lot of people got shaken up by it. Some people even wanted to leave the community....
I did think it was really silly how adults can act like children sometimes, but I wasn't really affected by it cuz I haven't read it, so I don't know what was said.
Thanks!

About Me
- Whitney
- I'm a 25 year old who loves to travel, serve and learn. I grew up and lived for 18 years in Italy where my parents were missionaries for 22 years. I lived for 2 years in Chicago where I completed a discipleship training school called Project 12 in the Jesus People USA Community (JPUSA) and worked for one of their homeless shelters. I then lived with my family in Portugal for a year teaching (1st, 6th, 7th grades and high school) at a small International Christian school.
I just completed my Bachelors of Arts in Education at Azusa Pacific University in California and I am in the process of becoming a missionary to China to work with children with disabilities and orphans and bring Christ's love to them.
-- How beautiful it is that God does not want to change the world without us. So often we ask God "Why don't you do something about injustice and poverty in the world?" and we can hear Him say back "I did do something, I made YOU" -- A quote I heard Shane Claiborne say once and which I find strongly inspirational.
