Triple Threat
For those of you that don’t know, I have been volunteering for an organization called Triple Threat Mentoring here in Aurora. Their mission is to reach under-resourced youth in Aurora in the area of Academics, Athletics & Arts.
I work in a group called Money in Motion. We have about 12 kids from a housing project here in Aurora called Jericho Circle. Although the purpose of the group is to teach the kids (6th-11th grade) the basics of money and how to handle it, the real purpose is to get to know the kids and offer them encouragement in all avenues of their life.
What are you doing to reach those in need in YOUR community??
Training
Good time in the gym this morning. Did 2 miles and then some upper body. Ate really well throughout the day and then…..
I updated my recruiter on my progress and discussed possible MOS’s (military occupation). Have not made a final decision yet.
Good time with the guys group tonight eventhough there was only 4 of us. We did something different and headed down to downtown Aurora. Good time.
Downtown Life
I am helping out with a photo shoot in downtown Aurora this morning for my church, The Orchard. Larry and I went last weekend to scout out the location. I now have a new appreciation for the downtown area. Instead of just seeing its current condition, I was able to hear and see the vision of what it can be, and how we as a church can be a part of it.
