Purpose

(For every page's details please scroll down).

I am Kingston. Welcome to our space. Out of a deep desire we created this space, to create a gathering for folks who believe in Jesus and will also like to make a unique contribution to the world through creative personal projects.

Also, these are folks who in the face of the negatives in life, choose faith. These are people who decide within themselves to choose a different path.

I chose the word “We,” because I know my folks are already out there.

These are folks who somehow know that in a place of swear words, they will like to choose wholesome words. When faced with the left and right, will prefer the right. In a place of despair and hope, to cling to hope. Whether to choose to doubt or believe, will side with believing. Whether to give up the seat or not, know it's right to give it up for the elderly. Between anger and calm, they will be happy to keep their cool. Between light and darkness, choose the light.

We are not perfect, we fall sometimes, but we get up and keep striving for what's right. So if you are still working on yours and feel like us, feel free to come along. We all often need a hand.

But always know that at any moment, we have the power to choose.

And in this choosing, our chief tool is the Word of God.

Feel free to look around, read the posts, or simply say hello or ask me a question through the form below, at the bottom of this page.

Should This Group Exist?



Sometime last year I put up a community event creation ad on craigslist. I was thinking of creating a group of folks who love God and would like to get together and discuss how we can help each other towards our goals.

A lady replied and asked me about the group. We went back and forth with emails. We decided on possibly meeting up to talk things over. Below is the email that I sent her to describe the group I want to create. Let me know if this group should live? 

........................................................................................................................... 

Thank you, Michele, for getting back.

I can tell you are looking for a way to do something for our Lord Jesus. I welcome you to what's possible.
I am also a branch from the same tree---King James Version of the Great Book.
Why I am starting this group:
We are not of the world, but in the world, and while we are here, we must make our contribution. Jesus once talked about the Kingdom of Heaven as a parable of talents ( Matthew 25: 14-30 KJV).

Each of us is given a unique set of talents to use on the earth, and we must trade it with the world to increase it, and have a lot more to give back to our Lord, the giver of talents and opportunities. I want to help my brothers and sisters make the most of their talents and opportunities for our Father's glory.
We need each other, and it's only in uniting can we make great things happen. That's why I am starting this group.

What we will be focusing on:
Also, to make the most of our talents and the righteous opportunities before us, we must prepare ourselves. If we are to use a knife, we must sharpen it; if we are to use our spirit, we must strengthen it; if we are to serve people, we must understand them. All these take time, practice, and support. This group is simply to develop our skills to for all that we want to do---and I think the ad on craigslist says that. I am approaching this with the understanding that 1+1 =3, or more with God.
Wanna meet?
There are a few other skills we will like to work on, and find ways to get things done---God's way, of course. Even for folks who don't have a car nor money, there's still a way to “do something.” I will like to go over some of these in a meeting with you sometime this week. I am available tomorrow and Friday evening---from 6pm to 8pm. Let me know if these times work for you, or if you would prefer another.
And speaking of meeting, I looked at your address and the bus system, and there's a 1 bus that stops on Metric and Kramer, and will take you to Metric and Sunhillow, where you can catch the 240 bus to Parmer and Tomanet. The 240 bus will stop on the last stop on the route. The Starbucks ( 2505 W Parmer Lane, Austin) will be on your right after you get off the bus. If it helps, after you take the 1 bus, let the bus driver know you will like to catch the 240 bus at Sunhillow and Metric.
Again feel free to decide---and be led of the Holy Spirit. I know He will never lead you astray.

Be well.
Kingston.
