30 Hour Famine

I sent in the money today, so it's official. Fire&Water Ministries raised $2210.32 for children starving around the world. That's pretty impressive. Think about all the school books that can be bought for that. All the food. All the water that can now be safe to drink.

My big question is this. If 15-20 people can raise that much money for one weekend, what could we accomplish if we got the other 200 million Americans involved? Plus people in other developed countries, England, Canada, Australia, heck, pretty much all of Europe. Would we even have any world hunger? Are we seriously that close, yet that uncommitted to do anything?

Thanks to all those that helped out and raised money! It is greatly appreciated by those around the world that will get to eat, drink and be clothed for the first time in a while...
