Some good work is in the works this Saturday-the 20th, as Chi Alpha is teaming up from CACTUS at Tulane to have a Paint Rally at Live Oak Elementary from 9-3:30. Lunch will be provided. If you would like to help us paint and fix and clean-up at this school, please email action@nolaxa.com before Thursday at 9am, or you can call 504.655.9273 and leave voicemail. Meet-up details and so forth will go out to those signed up later on Thursday.
In other news along these lines, Wednesday is the Global Day of Action Against Poverty.

What will you do to help make poverty history?
For many this is a hot political issue. I post it here, because I believe the Jewish and Christian Scriptures clearly teach debt forgiveness: see the law of jubilee, and the Lord's Prayer. I hope visitors of this website will consider their positions on wealth, poverty, and debt in light of God's Word again, or maybe for the first time.
