Welcome all!! I pray things are well with you both n.n

Welcome Platypoose (is that like, a platypus + moose, hehe) and FrostBurn!

How is everyone doing?

So I finally got around to sharing this. But I might be blessed with restarting strings program for the lower branch of a local private school I work as a sub with next year!

Did anyone else here what happened in Colorado last night. It's so sad. What happened was there was a midnight showing of the Dark Knight Rises, but some evil man planned something(I don't know what) and 15 people killed, 40 injured. Pray for them and that the man who did this will come to Christ.

It was awful what happened! The youngest victim of the shooting was only three months old

o.O

Has anyone heard of 1 Nation 1 Day? It's this big thing organized by Missions.me, based off of Isaiah 66:8 (Who has ever heard of such a thing? Who has ever seen such things? Can a country be born in a day or a nation be brought forth in a moment? Yet no sooner is Zion in labor than she has gives birth to her children. (NIV)).

For the sake of clarity, I'll go ahead and start from the beginning. There's several different opinions as to what Isaiah 66:8 is talking about. Some people think that it's talking about the big boom of Christianity in the first few centries, when it went from being a handful of rebels to the official of the Roman empire; some people think it's talking about when Israel became a country in the twentieth centry; others think it's talking about the coming of the messiah; and still other's think it's about an entire nation becoming saved in one day. Dominic and Lindsay Russo, the founders of Missions.me, believe the later. They think that the nation'll be Honduras and the day'll be July 20, 2013.

To make it happen, they've planned a huge crusade/mission trip thing. They'll be sending 2,000 missionaries to Honduras, have services in virtually every high school in the country, and also send in medical help and eighteen crates of food and such (for the eighteen states in Honduras), and theyll be training virtually every pastor in the nation as well. They've also gotten the government to support it. The president of Honduras agreed to support it on international television. He's even agreed to declare 1Nation1Day as a national holiday.

Finally, they're going to have eighteen services in eighteen of the largest venues in Honduras. It's going to be broadcasted live all around the world.

Do you attend church?: Not currently, no.
How long have you been a Christian?: 4 years in April.
Favorite Bible verse?: Phil. 4:13, Matt. 5:17-22
Anything you want to tell us?: I am a Hebrew Roots Christian, though I haven't been practicing for quite some time. My family is made up of Evangelicals and it's sometimes hard to carve out time to keep Shabbat when the other members of the household want to go out to eat on Saturdays or sit around and watch television on a Friday night!
