Dear tree lovers!

I'm a friend of Ainsley Jo philips.  She wanted me to contact the group to let you know that her computer has been broke down for over a couple of months, the hard drive and the mother board has gone out and she has ordered one from china and she is waiting on it to get here so she can get it fixed.  She misses the group and anticipates getting back.

I'm Ainsleys friend Yvonne and lookforward to participating.  I hope this is the right thread to post this too.

Have a faboulous friday!  Have a great weekend with family and friends!  Take good care!   Blessings of peace!  Yvonne and Ainsley

T.L.C. Packages are packages of food that you send to the children of IYN.
 
What you can send is:  Individual Pudding, Jello, Fruit cups and Applesauce. Also small bags of chips of different kinds.  And small bottles of water, juice or juice boxes!  Enclose if you want plastic spoons and News paper or other interesting literature for the kids to read about other places!

 
How you send it is, go to the post office and get a flat rate box, so that it will only cost a small amount to send! 
Send to:

Russell T. Hartsaw
940 Park Blvd. Suite # 334
San Diego, CA.
92101

This is one way you can help or send a money donation to the same address!  We can all make a difference, just by these two small ways!  Will you help these homeless children?

If you have any questions Please feel free to email me and I will definatley get back with you! My email address is bonbon124@yahoo.com   

Thank you and God Bless you!

Invisible Youth Network (IYN)

Helping homless and at risk youth of the world

Atlanta, Michigan can make a difference too!

 

"Something great is happening in San Diego, California that is spreading to communities all over the globe, and our hometown of Atlanta, Michigan is going to be one of the first communities to make sure that it happens---if you will join us in this endeavor! Will you help!?!"

Russell T. Hartsaw Founder and Chairman of the Invisible Youth Network (IYN) is a man that took it upon himself to help homeless children. He was a homeless child himself at one time and he knows what it is like to be in the streets with no food and no one that cared.

Russell started the Invisible Youth Network all by himself to begin feeding the children on the streets of San Diego. Volunteers freely give of their time at their expenses to help him. They go out in the streets weekly and feed these children.

We are all hoping and praying that in a few years this will cause a ripple effect and more communities will join in and each community will have their own projects and programs to help feed their own homeless children. It is a sad fact that children are starving out in the streets all alone, around the world and no one seems to care. As humans we need to start caring. These children need our help. We need to stand up and help these innocent and precious children.

This is just the first steps in this heart felt endeavor, that we at the Invisible Youth Network and Atlanta, Michigan can really get involved in and help these kids. I am very optimistic and positive that we as a community of people can really make a difference in childrens lives around the world. Someone, everyone needs to start caring. Russell Hartsaw and I, the members and volunteers at Invisible Youth Network care. You can get involved and help and care too. Every single one of us can make a difference. Pennies, dimes and quarters add up and basically throwing your change in the Homeless Youths Food Banks is what we are looking for, of course your welcome to donate as much as you feel you can and want to.

There are now 1,600 members of the Invisible Youth Network and growing, Invisible Youth Network is a growing online community that provides resources and support for homeless and at risk youths.

Our focus includes the communities and extends to the internet. There are 4000 homeless children in San Diego alone and 150 million children homeless in the streets of the world.

Really! What does it matter where you help children as long as you do. The rewards and blessings that you will feel in your heart is worth it.

All facets of Our Mission are guided by that our volunteers shall, tell kids they care and at every point prove it.

Yvonne Ladd member and volunteer will be placing donation cans in different locations around Atlanta. We can all make a difference in childrens lives. Will you please donate.

The funds will be sent to the Invisible Youth Network Food Bank. The funds will buy food for the homeless children of the San Diego and surrounding areas where homeless children are found.

Here are a couple websites to go on to to check it out.

http://www.care2.com/c2c/group/IYNBD and http://www.freewebs.com/invisibleyouth/foodbankprogram.htm

I want Atlanta, Michigan to know how important they are. I want them to know how much it means to a child to have food all year long, this isn't a one time deal, children need to be feed all year long. Do any of us here know what it is like to take food out to a homeless child, or a coat, stocking hat or a blanket and see the smile on a starving, cold child. Were you ever on the streets homeless and starving? and did anyone ever offer you food, a coat, hat or blanket?

I will be placing the cans out 3 times a year, October, Febuary and June. I will be giving an update on the funds collected. I want to thank you for your donations and caring about homeless children You are all very important to this endeavor and I hope you feel important too. I also want to thank the establishment that let me place our cans in their businesses! You are very Important in this endeavor too! All of you are! We can all make a big difference. Thank you! hugs! Yvonne

My Sunday School teacher taught me God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit are good.  I believed her then and still believe her today.  I thank and praise God for my life and Gods santifying grace, love and forgiveness, He has given me.  He will do this for you to, just ask Him.  I know God brought me into this world and He has been with me throughout my life.  I was born for a purpose and it was not to be abused.  I am Gods child I have been born in Christ.  I am a blesssing from and to God.  Someone asked me once, "How can you believe in God when all these bad things happened to You?"  I told them the truth, "God did not do these bad things to me, humans did."  As human beings, we are all tempted by the devil and he tries to put things in our heads to convince us we are bad.  The devil will tell us God doesn't really love us.  These are lies and tricks the devil uses to get us to sin and not believe in God.  To make us mad at God so we don't talk to Him.  To make us doubt Gods love for us.  All tricks, lies and deceptions from the devil himself.  We can not allow ourselves to fall for these tricks to destroy us.  Grab your Bible and your Faith and prove him wrong.  God is our strength, He will help us.  My hope is that people like you who suffer from depression and have been abused, can find relief, with Gods help.  To kneel in prayer to God and  to talk to Him and feel Him is exuberant.  It's the only high to have on this earth.  When you are a survivor of incest, the helplessness you feel is tremendous.  You hurt and grieve from pain and shame for years.  These family members were suppose to be protecting you, not abusing you.  You can't turn to them for help so you feel very alone and helpless.  Everything at times seem hopeless.  I tried to tell my parents and I told a teacher, but neither heard me.  It was like I didn't exist.  The little girl the men were molesting didn't see me either.  I didn't exist to anyone.  I did not have an identity, and even now to this day, I feel lost at times.  Like I am nobody.  I wonder sometimes who I am.  I do have my sweet Jesus.  One day after being molested and receiving a horse whipping from my step dad, I became very distraught.  I was seven, and decided I was going to end my life.  I climbed into the corn crib and cried and cried and prayed to Jesus.  I asked God to forgive me for the part I had in the abuse and asked God to forgive the abusers.  I started to get up to climb to the top of the corn crib.  I was going to throw myself out the window head first and kill myself.  All in a second Jesus appeared before me and said "Child I forgive you and love you, do not take your life, trust in me and I will be with you always."  Jesus was almost as tall as the corn crib.  He was glowing all around his body.  He was the most brillant human form I have ever seen.  From that day on I have known Jesus is with me and sees all, and I know He forgives me.  Oh my sweet Jesus, I have trusted Him and loved Him and confided in Him always.  He let me know He is there and He will be there for you too.  Truely believe and talk to Jesus, it is an awesome feeling.  Focus on Jesus, walk with Jesus, laugh with Jesus continuously throughout the day.  Jesus will bless you and love you like no other could.

Self

Self, why do you cry?  you are so unhappy
Self's sad, past memories still hurt
Self, why does your insides ache in pain?
Self's heart is broken in pieces
Self do you love yourself?
Self's not sure who herself is
Self do you need a carpenter?
Self's reply "Yes! a wise carpenter"
Self, who is a wise carpenter?
Self's thought, "Jesus is a wise carpenter"
Self, did you ask Jesus to be your wise carpenter?
Self's prayer, "Jesus please be my wise carpenter"
Self asks, "Can the repairs be done right now?"
Self's impatient
Self's ears hear, "Only I your Wise Carpenter knows how long."
Self, what do you say to your Wise Carpenter?
Self's prayer, "Jesus my Wise Carpenter I praise and thank you for making each repair towards my new self!  I love you!  Help me to love myself.  Amen!"

Space intruded

Space intruded
large and small
large as in minds
small as in matter
open space, within a cage
hiding places scarce
amid frantic escape
caught in a snare
no way out
inward security pure
young and kind
Bonnie mine
little eyes and ears did see and hear
drunks slobbering and gross
pawing grabbing feeling and hurting
evil screams and evil laughter
piercing and stabbing
stinking and reeking odor putrid
heavy crushing smothering weight
unconscious aware vomit

Zutty

zippity zappity zerrry
where in the zoppity
is zutty?
up in the tree with
nuttty the squirrel
he has a pink tail
that is fluttering
back and forth
he takes a dive and lands
on a green zabbit, that
is not like a rabbit
it's like a yabbit!

Mask Preview

Exploding destruction rips to shreds
and tosses heaping piles of confusion throughout
torn pieces of flesh pulse and ache in a child, this child
quick and sure reality
pictures of ugly evil and pitiful sakes
forbidden tracts stomped and ruined
hurt so deep and wide in a child, this child
Terror and fright kicks and fights a child, this child
an iron child
make believe?  no!  a child, this child
intruders brutal force pain so keen
a piercing pain, iron childs fierce return
laughter, grabbing and stabbing pain
lust entangled, a madman?  games?
Insane!  a stone cold reaction fuels anger
in action, in an iron child, a child, this child
worlds pass in and out
mixed emotions play and prey viciously about
reality? rage? terror? pain? racked with confusion in a child, this child
spread out to be devoured, a child, Yes!  this child, an iron child
