Save Darfur | By Patrick Goodenough, International Editor , pr
The lines are no longer simply metaphorically drawn between Northern and Southern Sudan... the government is now physically marking the boundries looking to this upcoming January's vote. So I just wonder who will rule Darfur?

Inside look at The Dawn Treader
Will The Dawn Treader Float? | Movies & TV | Christianity Today
100 Christian leaders got to preview the film to give their two cents. The producer is reacting to the backlash about the previous film's darker portrayal and it being "a little too rough".
Cool news. I'm looking forward to the film...

Help a child
Christ cares for the "least of these". Christ cares for the powerless. Christ cares for children. So should we. Here is an important piece of legislation that I encourage you to get behind. Please read up about it.
This link (here) will lead you to information and the possibility to send the following letter to your Government Representative:
Please support the Child Protection Compact Act (HR 2737)
Dear Member of Congress:
I write to express support for the Child Protection Compact Act of 2009.
This legislation would help eradicate the exploitation of children for labor and commercial sex in developing countries by offering additional resources for law enforcement, victim relief and deterrence through apprehension and prosecution of traffickers.
UNICEF estimates that nearly two million children worldwide are exploited each year through commercial sex trade, and millions more are at risk in dangerous industries. These crimes are not the inevitable consequence of poverty. Rather, they indicate the failure of justice systems in developing countries to take the profit out of slavery by successfully investigating, prosecuting and convicting those who traffic in human beings.
The Child Protection Compact Act has been endorsed by International Justice Mission, World Vision, Amnesty International USA, Freedom House, Not for Sale, the SOLD Project, Polaris, Equality Now and Sojourners.
I urge you to become a sponsor of this important and innovative legislation, and help build public justice systems that protect the poor and vulnerable.
