I went to a woman’s conference at my church yesterday and the event focused on the needs of millions of children around the world. I’ve been seeing this need mentioned on a few other blogs, too. Over 2 million deaths per year are caused by unsafe drinking water. Over a billion people don’t have access to clean water – they sometimes have to travel a long way to get their water and the water that they do get is full of parasites and it’s just dirty! Causelife<\/a> is an organization that’s trying to provide clean drinking water to people around the world. Take a look at their site and consider donating if you’re able. I did give at yesterday’s women’s conference.<\/p>\n

I’m not sure if this young man, Brian Garcia’s, testimony will be of interest to the readers of this blog. This man’s story resonated with me because of my background with the Jehovah’s Witnesses. Feel free to watch the video here<\/a>. I really enjoyed watching this so wanted to mention it to you.<\/p>\n

I can’t get the Giants\/Nephilim out of my mind. I’ve already blogged about them twice, and I keep thinking about those giant grapes<\/a>!<\/p>\n

One blog reader commented that the fruits and vegetables were much bigger a long time ago and that I needed to study archeological anthropology to come across this fact. I think I’ll do that and see what I can find! I’ll let you know what I come across!<\/p>\n
