Slum Survivor at Southend Christian Fellowship

Hey Love Southend Youth,

October 26th - October 28th is going to be our Slum Survivor weekend ast Southend Christian Fellowship.

15 people (myself included) will be making and living in a slum in the Plaza Centre car park on Southchurch Road. The reason for this is to raise money and awareness about the 1 billion people worldwide who live in slums.

This post is being sent to see if you can help, there are FOUR ways to get involved:

1. Be a part of the slum - come down and visit the volunteers, see what the conditions are like. Maybe you have some connections to the press you could pass details on to them or their details on to me.
   
2. Pray - pray for the weekend, pray for protection and also for a heightened awareness.
   
3. Give visit www.justgiving.com/delthomas and donate as much as you can towards the cost. Every little helps.
   
4. Finally if you are on facebook join http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=5014789671 and invite all your friends from facebook.

Lets work together to make a difference. Let me leave you with a word of scripture from 1 Peter 4 vv 8-11

Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. 9Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. 10Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms. 11If anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking the very words of God. If anyone serves, he should do it with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen.
