Swine Flu & Hope
May 2, 2009

                                          

When we will have universal health care?  When will the record business climb out of the septic tank?  When will Jonathan mow the lawn? 
 
For years the answer to such vexing questions has been "When pigs fly!"  We despaired of ever seeing these things happen.  But now we have reason to hope, because it's confirmed: swine flew.

The Hope Force International Organization
Feb 11, 2007
The Hope Force International Organization:
http://www.hopeforce.org/index.php
Mission
Hope Force International is committed to motivating, equipping and mobilizing the global Christian community to respond in times of crisis and chronic need, alleviating suffering and bringing hope through compassionate action.

Vision
Hope Force International is dedicated to providing a clear pathway for Christians, worldwide, to become leading responders to the plight of global suffering.

Core Values
We are committed to:
Love and obey God
Love and serve others
Demonstrate the highest standards of professionalism
Model servant leadership
Embrace an environment that fosters teamwork, trust and accountability
Follow the ways of God in all that we do

What is Hope Force International?
Hope Force International is a Christian 501(c)3, non-profit
organization comprised of individuals dedicated to utilizing their
expertise to inspire, equip and mobilize thousands of volunteers into areas of crisis around the world.

Why Do We Exist?
Hope Force International OrgWe believe that disasters – both manmade and natural – will continue to be on the increase. We believe that Christians have a mandate torespond to the plight of those suffering from disaster or chronic need. However, while the need is so great and growing daily, the relative numbers of responders are few. It is our firm belief that there would be a dramatic increase in Christian responders if accessibility to
preparation and direct involvement were more attainable.

Dear Friends,
I just discovered this and felt we should keep it handy for future reference and/or needs. Also, I do not feel that only Christians do good works, so don't let that turn you away if the org's works interest you. Peace~ KathleenR/AngelFaith              ~The Angel Power Emporium~
