  1. Check out all that Southland is doing to transform Lexington. Jon would be an excellent candidate for this list and for a Catalyst workshop. The dollar club is a great idea. Check out his messages on the website and his blog at http://www.southlandchristian.org/jonweece.

  2. Hi Brad!

    Wanted to recommend the student leaders of Fashion and Freedom, an event held at UCLA on 11/19, designed to raise awareness and funds for several pertinent social justice orgs. Merely Kim, the founder of FnF, is a Senior at UCLA who did some work assisting the efforts of a sex-traffiking org last year. She returned determined to start a non-profit who’s sole purpose is to support the efforts of social justice orgs. She quickly grew a team of 40 people from all walks of life, has attracted some corprate sponsors, and is producing the First Annual Fashion and Freedom event this month. She is remarkable.
