Trash Mountain

For over a year, the word "Hope" has been prevalent in both our minds and heart. Everywhere we go people asking the question, "Is there really any hope?" The reckless nature of our culture has led many people to believe that there is no hope. We haven't settled on a name for our new church but the word hope will play a significant part. Right now, we are leaning towards Hope for the Journey Fellowship. If you have other suggestions let us know.

Tonight, we met a couple of guys who are bringing hope to those whom would never dream of a good life. These guys founded The Trash Mountain Project after experiencing, first hand, the squalor in which some of the world's poorest people live. Children walking around barefoot with used, dirty and disease infested syringes poking to the sky. Infants dying from the disease that they sit in day after day as their parents work the trash mountain.

Look up Gehena in a good Bible dictionary or even on Wikipedia. Then watch the Cambodia video at http://www.TrashMountain.com.
