A Few Things To Think About ( #2044 )

A Few Things To Think About ( #2044 )   1.) Those who think evil, are evil! 2.) If we have faith, love and charity then we have a good heart! 3.) Sometimes what we have seen is not what we thought we saw! 4.)  Do not fear what we do not know or we will be scared of everything! 5.) It is best to honor truth more than it is to honor any man! 6.) No wise person ever just woke up one morning and it…

25 Days of Giving – Sreepur Village

Pat Kerr was a stewardess with British Airways in 1981 when she visited a Canadian charity in the Bangladesh capital of Dhaka. Offering food and shelter for destitute children, it provided hope amidst urban dystopia. Still, the charity could only assist a tiny fraction of children in need.

In response, Kerr worked with British Airways to raise funds and political support towards action. In 1989, she opened a new children’s home north of Dhaka. Known as the Sreepur Village, it has since provided tens of thousands of orphans and destitute women with shelter, support and a path towards social mobility.

For up to the next five years, the women receive training, food and shelter, occupational guidance and counseling. They learn a trade via which they can earn a living after leaving Sreepur. Children at Sreepur also receive tailored support in education and sports activities.

Follow our OL Gives Calendar throughout December to learn how you can help these featured charities! We’ll update every day with a new charity.

Sharing in the Action of the Centurion

We say to Our Lord in this first week of Advent, "Show me your ways; teach me your paths." This doesn't mean to point them out as to a tourist, who might say, "Isn't that lovely?" but to show me your ways that I may walk on them, and teach me your paths that I may follow them. This is the itinerary for Advent. Don't sit at the window and rock and wait for the Redeemer to come. Walk down these ways, and follow these paths. It is a time of action. A homily of Saint Gregory the Great speaks of our Lord's desire to find us prepared. This is a very poignant thought. We know our desire to bring him forth, our desire to meet him in the Parousia, our desire to be with him for ever. He has desires, too. He desires our perfection. He desires to find us prepared. He will be very disappointed if we are not prepared. If we meet him at Midnight Mass with our little works of darkness still around us snugly as a shawl, then he will be disappointed, because he is desiring to find us ready; he is desiring to find those hearts emptied of our pet affections, our worldliness; he is desiring to find us stripped of our works of darkness; he is desiring to find us full of love and gentleness and eagerness to be his. So let us not disappoint him; let us not meet him with hearts full of our own little desires. –Mother Mary Francis, P.C.C.

May 17th ~ 18th Charity live stream ~ pre start countdown update #1

Yes, a reminder that myself and the other guys at TrueGeekRadio.com are holding 24 hour streams and events to raise money for the annual 8 bit salute.

You can feel free to start donating now, here: http://www.operationsupplydrop.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=donorDrive.participant&participantID=1665

Any amount is fine from pennies to pounds, dollars, euro's and every other denomination under the sun.

and dont forget to visit the TGR Team page here : http://www.operationsupplydrop.org/index.cfm?fuseaction=donorDrive.team&teamID=5087

But enough about why, and instead onto, what:

See my problem with most 24 hour live streams is that they are one looooooong booring slog through one day doing the same thing, constantly, or variations of that thing.

For my stream I'd like to attempt to do something different.

So for this countdown updates I'll be providing more information as to what I'll be doing during the event and providing you all hopefully with both a schedule and incentives to donate.

The show starts on Midnight 17th of May (GMT+0100) That's 4pm PDT, 7PM EDT

I'll be kicking things off with a return to one of my old shows, Achievemental, Watch for the first bundle of hours as I attempt to crack the art of achievement hunting. I'll be creating a new blank slate, and attempting to hit as high an achievement score as I can in six hours. By any mean's necessary. 

Be sure to follow me on the twitters : @seiibutsu , bookmark my twitch channel in advance: http://www.twitch.tv/seiibutsu and donate or spread the word.

And keep em peeled here for more updates and info....
