The headline readyds…KRod Kood…then aother Brooklyn basketball star pushes his wife down the stairs..now nice..the headlines we read about sports stars often adorn our papers with horrible things..not stars, but punks who hit the ball hard…and people hard..

A world to change..when will focus on other heros in our society…like Tom or Mary or Rich or Ron…like the student who does service…like you who dares to reads this…time to get busy again..Service is the key..no question..prayer, action, and heros come..join us no matter what faith…today a young man from Israel..comes in..he lived on a Kibbutz..now helps others..for two weeks he is here and will help us.. I say Todah!!!!! Thank you…

No matter what he is a hero..you are too…live a Habitat heros life today…God blesss

Renewable energy for our work, going Solar, looking at wind power, and also our Insulation will be green….or blue..like blue jeans..

This weekend we collected large amounts of denim blue jeans for our insulation, 25,000 square feet of it, will be used to help seniors and vets, with our weatherization Brush with Kindness program..

If you have a senior or veteran that needs a home weatherized let us know..

Along with that we are blessed to be able to help so many, from this senior today who we will deconstruct her garage that was hit over by a storm to helping those in Haiti, to helping another family in White plains and much much more..

 

God has blessed us so much in all we do, because of people like you..

Also shout out to Family Christian Center, that gave us a shout out, they used flooring tiles and more from ourRestores…

Jeremiah ch 10 VERSE 9…but the lord is the true God, he is the living God and the everlasting King, at his wrath the earth quakes, and the nations cannot endure his indignation…

 

Thus you shall say to them The gods who did not make the heavens and the earth shall perish from the earth and from under the heavens.

 

These are the days of Elijah declaring the name of the Lord..days of servants Moses…days of great trial..famine darkness and sword, still we the voice in the desert crying Prepare ye the way of the Lord!

 

Leaving a prayer serviced with my Haitian American frineds, remembering the dead bodies, the earthquake..the earth could quake tonite…the gulf could swell again and NOLA  or NEW YORK wiped out…

But the days of the harvest are here…if we labor in God s vineyard…declaring the word of the Lord….

With our Actions, with Habitat…Muslim,Christian Jew, …the God of Abrhaham has called us…time to get busy!!!!!

 

Thank you..truly today was a blessed Thursday…four towns and cities, we built in…hundreds of volunteers…in the background I hear,…there is no God like Jeheoah….no God…the trumpets rise in our neighborhoods, years of Jubilee…salvation comes with habitat in the form of a hammer, climing Jacobs ladder in the form of sheetrocking…and salvation comes when the keys re given to another family….join us…!

An early morning call into the radio…I state..Imagine..like John Lennon, the Flaming of the Fires of religion have caused wars and death  for years..from massacres of protestants, jews  mulsims catholics Indians

and more…  would God create another religion today…does God challenge people to kill one another in the name of the Love of God….wee call it the Theology of the Hammer, only we hammer nails not each other, we kill poverty not people..we eradicate injustice, not eliminate indians…we raise walls, instead of bombing them…our prayer in action is outside of walls on work sites, building homes…not inside walls flaming hatred and special gnosic answers………..we can all work together BUILD WITH US THIS 911  ON 911 THE WORLD WAS CHANGED FOREVER, THIS 911 COME OUT AND CHANGE THE WORLD…  to that end we wake up we pray to the one God we all believe in, or don’t believe in, and work together…..

working class city, in the heart of the commonwealth, much like Yonkers a city of hills....my your hometown or city be blessed tonite..may you remember from where you came..to where you are..to how you help and change your own community..may all live in a simple decenthome...i started the day in NY, with a doctor from Mt sinai...who went to Haiti..he wanted my input...Claude Jeudy emails me from Haiti this morning...we are working on amazing things to change Haiti...stay tuned...from Worcester to Westchester and Westchester to Worcester...and Delmar to Petionville, Port Au Prince...the world is smaller, communities and home towns can be rebuilt and the dream of simpe decent homes for all across the earth ....continue...God blessyou and yours...jjk

Lets look at the things that we see in front of us, great talented people..people who are working helping and with talent..who can bring their gifts to help in so many ways….

Often we don’t look at those right around us as talented…for us, everyone has an opportunity to be at the Habitat table, building, mentoring, helping in the stores, or in the offices, or running an event to raise funds…for our houseraising..

 

Yesterday I took a ride to see the home that needs rehabbing in White Plains that the city called us on to help rehab….another great opportunity, with walking distance of our Highland Avenue site…we will have a busy fall in White Plains…as well as Somers, Yonkers, New Rochelle, Mamoroneck and more…

We need you to make sure there is an LPC leader inyour community and committee…to grow our work there…stay tuned…we have only just begun..with your help
