This Is What Movements Look Like….

Short post, but very cool!
As a part of Do Something Now at Passion 2010 in Atlanta 108,432 meals were packaged by 568 students and shipped in the days after the conference to Nicaragua and the Philippines to feed the hungry through our partner Feed My Starving Children.

One student who participated in the packing, David R., a freshman at Texas A&M University, was so moved by the experience that he went home organized an event on A&M’s campus on May 5th. The students at A&M exceeded their goal of 100,000 meals, both in funds raised and meals packed.

Brilliant!

From One Side Of The World To The Other

Hong Kong Loves Sao Paulo!

親愛的巴西弟兄姐妹們,

你們好!!!!!!!!

Passion 聖保羅將要來到!你們都非常興奮嗎?你們準備好了群集一起敬拜至高的君王嗎?你們準備好要在你們的城市,在你們的國家,還有在這個世界裏使耶穌聞名嗎?如果你說是的話,那麽你和我就有共同的心跳了。感謝主!

我的名字叫Sam。我來自中國。我很感恩能幾度在香港和美國參加Passion會議。今年6月,Passion香港又一次震動了我的世界!我永遠也不會忘記那震撼的一刻 – 當時我們所有參加Passion香港的三千多個大學生,為著巴西的大學生來禱告。我們祈求你們會為Passion聖保羅而興奮起來,你們會受到極大的激勵而加入到世界性的Passion運動中,使耶穌聞名。對 – 你就是我們代禱的對象。而且我們並沒有停止過為你們禱告。今天,我依然帶著我的手帶,背面寫著“Passion 聖保羅 9月3-4日”。雖然我們從沒見過面,但我每天都為你們禱告。

朋友們,準備出發去Passion 聖保羅吧!記住到時要喊得大聲一點,好使我們在中國也能聽見你們的聲音!

願神祝福你們!

Sam

Dear brothers and sisters in Brazil,

Hello!!!!!!!!!

Passion Sao Paulo is coming soon! Are you so excited? Are you ready to get together to worship the King of the most High? Are you ready to make Jesus famous in your city, in your country and in the world? If you say yes, then you and I have the same heartbeat. Praise the Lord!

My name is Sam. I am from China and I was blessed to attend several Passion Conferences in Hong Kong and the US. Passion HK this June ROCKED my world again! I will never forget the powerful moment when over 3000 of us Chinese college students praying together at Passion HK for college students in Brazil. We prayed that you will get fired up for Passion Sao Paulo, that you will be inspired to join this world-wide Passion Movement to make Jesus famous. Yes – YOU are the ones we were praying for. And we have not stopped praying. Today, I still have my wristband on with the back saying “Passion Sao Paulo 3/4 Sept” and I am thinking of you every day even though we have never met.

Get ready for Passion Sao Paulo, my friend! Make sure you shout so loud there that we can hear it in China!

God bless you!

Sam

in Portuguese:

Queridos irmãos e irmãs no Brasil,

Olá!!!!!!

Passion São Paulo está chegando! Vocês estão animados? Estão prontos para se reunir e adorar o Rei sobre todas as coisas? Estão prontos para fazer Jesus famoso na sua cidade, no seu país e no mundo? Se você disse sim, então os nossos corações estão no mesmo ritmo. Glória a Deus!

Meu nome é Sam. Eu sou da China e fui abençoado em participar várias vezes das conferências Passion tanto em Hong Kong como nos EUA. Passion Hong Kong em junho impactou profundamente o meu mundo, de novo! Eu nunca esquecerei o momento poderoso em que mais de 3000 de nós universitários chineses estávamos orando durante o Passion HK pelos estudantes do Brasil. Nós oramos para que vocês sejam incendiados no Passion SP, e que vocês sejam inspirados a participar desse movimento mundial do Passion de fazer Jesus famoso. Sim – era por VOCÊS que nós estávamos orando. E nós não paramos de orar. Hoje, eu ainda estou com a minha pulseira no braço, e no verso diz “Passion São Paulo 3 e 4 de setembro” e eu estou pensando em vocês todo dia, embora nós nunca nos conhecemos.

Se prepare para o Passion São Paulo, meu amigo! E garanta que vocês gritem tão alto que nós poderemos ouvi-los na China!

Deus abençoe vocês!

Sam
