World Vision Dialogue - What YOU CAN DO TODAY

TAKING ACTION: Doing YOUR PART

Message from Costa Rica from Joshua Peace Seeker

Dear friends,

I have witnessed the world I want to live in.

I have seen what people can do to work together.

I have felt community.

It is time to follow your heart people. It is time to do what you know needs to be done to empower yourself and your community. I have taken the leap myself with this project in Coats Rica. We all have a different role to play in the revolution. So lets all make sure we do our part the way we can. Start today in fact.

WHAT YOU CAN DO
If you want to stop playing in the George Bush game, STOP. Get active right now with some local food production. This summer with the cost of food and fuel so high is a great time to start. Look into a Community Supported Agriculture project in your town. Buy a share of a farm and help the farmers produce local, organic foods. Just one step, but a huge step, towards freeing yourself.

Anyone who wants to learn and or teach how to get back to a better balance, please come visit our farm in Costa Rica.

Help us rebuild the forests.

IRAN: How can we allow another WAR?

Message from Costa Rica from Joshua Peace Seeker

Dear Friends,

The U.S. government is gearing up to attack Iran.

We simply cannot allow them destroy another sovereign country that has done nothing to harm the U.S.
This video came out about 9 months ago. You may have seen it, but take another look. (Unfortunately, the statistics it quoted back then are sadly have greatly increased.

Please also review some updated statistics below. We need to take every action we can and speak to everyone we know to stop the horror and terror our country is inflicting.

No time to hope it will not happen.
