5 for 50 Priceless

Tuesday, February 19, 2008 9:15 PM

A McDonald's Extra Value Meal ... $5
A Starbucks Venti Mocha Frappuccino with a Shot of Raspberry... $5

Feeding 100 Children A Hot Meal... $5
Sending an Orphan To School For A Month... $5
Having My Heart Changed ... Priceless

The M/C Priceless ads are probably my favorite ad campaign ever. In honor of them I could not resist the cheezy opportunity to contrast the priceless changes that God is doing in the hearts of his people.

Inspired by Jeff Walling's 3:16 prayer for the lost idea at Winterfest I decided to attempt to raise $316 in 30 days for the 5 for 50 program. The 5 for 50 program shows how a little bit can go so far. I want to ask my friends to choose 1 day in the next 30, and give up 1 extra value meal, or 1 Starbucks Frap, or 1 whatever and send that money to support the work of feeding, educating, and discipling the 120,000 orphans of the Kingdom of Swaziland. In light of the abundant love of Christ, how can we not do that one small part!

Awesome plan, Kevin. To paraphrase a Hilary Clinton speech I heard this week, words DO have meaning but they don't mean much without action to back them up.

You, my brother, are putting action to your words and your feelings.

Keep up the good fight,
Elysa

P.S. I can't believe I just quoted from a Hilary Clinton speech. I think I've DEFINITELY been listening to too much political news.
