International Justice Mission

A group of us were talking last week about this tour and International Justice Mission so I figured I'd post this here as it does go along with serving. You can find out more about International Justice Mission at http://www.ijm.org/ but here is a blurb off their website as to what they do: "International Justice Mission is a human rights agency that secures justice for victims of slavery, sexual exploitation and other forms of violent oppression. IJM lawyers, investigators and aftercare professionals work with local officials to ensure immediate victim rescue and aftercare, to prosecute perpetrators and to promote functioning public justice systems."

And a group of artists are doing a tour where 90% of the proceeds go to IJM. You can find more about the tour at http://www.myspace.com/artmusicjustice . The closest they are coming to here is Houston. So now you are in the know AND you can download a sampler of the artists music below. Or go to www.noisetrade.com to download it and a ton of other music (legally). For some reason it seems to work better on firefox or safari.

LL Party

WHOA! The date got moved up without my knowledge. If anyone wants to bake cookies or rice krispie treats or something like that (finger food, not too messy) than let Blanca or me know as soon as you can. We will need them by THIS Sunday as the Party is MONDAY NIGHT the 25th. Thanks team.
