A great idea

I just found this website from a link on facebook.  I love their headliner "Fast. Forward. The End of Poverty"

http://www.live58.org/

Make sure you view the video on that front page - lots of great statistics, one of the most significant was that since 1980, the number of people living in extreme poverty has gone from 52% to 26%.  Their whole focus is to go that final 26% and eradicate extreme poverty in this generation.  Sounds great to me!

There is a movie that they have produced and I have order the viewing kit.  As soon as I get it, I'm going to talk to my pastor about showing it at our church in early November.  More info to come soon!
