Urgent Update on Our Situation: Your Support Is a Lifeline🛑🛑🚨

Dear Friends and Supporters,

I am writing to share an urgent update on the situation we are facing here. As winter settles in, we are living in a tent under inhumane conditions that continue to worsen by the day. The tent offers no protection against the severe cold or the rain that seeps in, making the situation unbearable. The cold is not only uncomfortable but is causing numerous health issues due to the lack of proper healthcare and warm shelter ❄️.

We are forced to rely on sea water for our daily needs. Unfortunately, this water is not suitable for human use, and it poses a serious health risk 🚱. The contamination and salt make it unsafe for consumption, let alone for washing or cooking, leaving us with limited options.

The funds raised through this campaign are not just about helping us evacuate and escape this suffering. They will be used to rebuild our lives and restore our dreams. But they are also a lifeline for us right now ❤️. Your generous donations will help us buy food, if it is available, despite the extremely high prices, and purchase basic supplies to survive the harsh winter. These supplies are vital to protect us from further harm caused by the severe conditions in which we are forced to live.

If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this campaign with your network 🌍. Every share helps us reach more people who may be able to assist in any way possible.

Your support means everything to us, and I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for considering helping us through these dark and difficult times. Together, we can make it through this, and with your help, we can rebuild our future.

Thank you again for your kindness and support 🙏.

Sincerely

“We want the war horse.

Jesus rides a donkey.

We want the bird of prey.

The Holy Spirit descends as a dove.

We want the militia.

Jesus calls fishermen, tax collectors, women, and children.

We want the courtroom.

Jesus sets a table.

We want the gavel.

Jesus washes feet.

We want to take up swords.

Jesus takes up a cross.

We want the empire.

Jesus brings the Kingdom of God.

We want the nation.

Jesus calls the church.

We want the roaring lion.

God comes as a slaughtered lamb.

We keep trying to arm God.

God keeps trying to disarm us.”

~ Benjamin Cremer

Resist

Our world

Swirls with hatred and violence.

Your love

Is an act of defiance.

Loving yourself means speaking kindly to yourself. Which is admittedly very hard if you had parents who didn’t.🤍

Fuck them. Be kind to yourself. Be gentle to yourself. Your inner child is waiting for you to love them. 🤍

Your inner child needs YOU to love them in the ways you wish other people would.🤍

If you were Christians, you wouldn’t sin continually, as you do, and defend it. You would be brokenhearted and repentant, and you would pray to have your life changed.

Low-impact Production:

Reducing water and energy consumption in the manufacturing process. Implementing cleaner production techniques like using natural dyes and energy-efficient machinery.

Reduction of Textile Waste:

The fashion industry generates vast amounts of textile waste, with millions of tons ending up in landfills every year. By buying second-hand or vintage clothing, consumers help divert these items from landfills, reducing the environmental burden.

Second-hand and Vintage Fashion:

Energy and Resource Conservation:

The production of new garments requires significant amounts of raw materials, water, and energy. By reusing existing clothing, consumers indirectly conserve these resources, as no additional materials are needed for the items already in circulation. This also lowers carbon emissions associated with producing and shipping new clothing items.

"Be the Change – Wear What Matters"

Fashion is about more than just looking good. By choosing sustainable or second-hand clothing, you’re taking a stand for the planet and ethical production.

I have to talk about “Gods country” these lyrics have been stuck in the back of my mind for days now. “It was a highway to nowhere, and we rode it. Cold car with no gas and we chose it. Soft bodies playing in the street. Our kids will grow up with half as much, trying to build something out of dust.” This reminds me of small town rural America where young people get addicted to drugs and settle down with less than ideal partners. Their kids are raised in a twisted environment, and are set up to make the same failures as their parents. It saddens me to see the generational curses continue in these small towns. It makes me wonder about ways we could change and get those children out of their environments, and into one they can prosper in.
