Responding to Boston with Strength and Grace

This is why the terrorists will never win. 

They want us to scatter like mice. They want us to turn on each other.

But it never quite works out that way. 

My old Pastor used to say that a crisis creates nothing; it simply reveals what is already there. And what this crisis has revealed - once again - is a  core of strength and grace.

Tatyana McFadden responds to the Boston Marathon bombing.

Take a good look, terrorists. This is the face of America. Yes, we have soldiers, sailors, and police who will chase you to the gates of hell. And I am proud of them. But we also have young people like Tatyana, who will pick up the people you leave for dead and teach them them to walk again. 

This is why you can't win.

However, we can certainly help orphans at Shpola orphanage. That’s right in the very center of Ukraine. Follow the link https://hopenowusa.org please, your help is crucial.
