« Previous Entries Next Entries »Pray for peace today in SoCal
Thursday, May 5th, 2005Ordinarily I would be skeptical of things like this as internet hoaxes, but Rudy is a source I trust. Apparently, Los Angeles anticipates gang bloodshed today between Mexican and black youths. Please join Rudy in praying for: “Protection for anyone targeted, for people of violence to be removed, or the spirit of violence to be [...]
Please pray for Nonna
Monday, April 11th, 2005It was just a month and a half ago that we celebrated Diana’s grandmother’s 80th birthday with a surprise party (pics here). A few days before Easter, Nonna began feeling ill, and she visited her doctor a couple of days after the holiday. The doctor found evidence of a possible mass on her liver. Last [...]
Biopsy today
Wednesday, April 6th, 2005Please pray for 4-year old Samuel C. Originally diagnosed with leukemia in July, it went into remission in August. Now, after several weeks of poor blood levels, he’s going in for another biopsy today.

A surreal life — breaking news — please pray
Monday, March 21st, 2005Last month was Square One. Today was Day One. Last Thursday, the Greater New York Billy Graham Crusade offered me a three-month retainer to direct the Get Real youth campaign as part of the June crusade. (More on Get Real in a future post.) What an opportunity! In an earlier post I wrote about Billy [...]
Viva la revolution! – Part 2: the Mobilization Strategy
Wednesday, March 2nd, 2005So my original report from Square One promised a follow-up post with next step instructions. Here goes. 1. Grow the army. To the extent we’re serious about giving 5 million young people in the Greater New York area a credible opportunity to attend Billy Graham’s “Get Real” Crusade, 787 youth leaders is a nice start [...]
Off the mountaintop, into the valley
Sunday, February 13th, 2005I returned home to bad news. First came word that 4-yr. old cancer fighter Samuel is back in the hospital with a high fever. Please pray for him. Then came an email that a friend’s cousin committed suicide a few days ago. He left behind a seemingly wonderful life as a successful lawyer at a [...]
Alone, in the mountains
Friday, February 11th, 2005If it was good for JC, it must be good for me. With Diana and Judah away at her sister’s for a few days, I’m off to the moutains of upstate NY for a weekend of solitude — prayer, refocusing, refreshing, and (hopefully) a little rest. Pray with me that God speaks and, more importantly, [...]
Pray for Abner and his team
Thursday, February 10th, 2005Abner Ramos is an Intervarsity staff worker at East L.A. College. One of the students in his chapter, Julio, was killed this week in a hit-and-run accident. Abner is in the middle of the tragedy, as is Brad Arnold, and I pray wisdom and spiritual strength as they support Julio’s loved ones during a very [...]
Five weeks later
Tuesday, February 1st, 2005… they’re still finding victims of the Indian Ocean Tsunami. Yesterday, relief workers in Indonesia found the bodies of 1,000 more lives lost. That brings the official death toll to 157,000, with more than 100,000 people still missing. Even though the Tsunami’s shifted from view, keep praying, and giving.credit card accept transactionamazon credit card accountbad [...]
