AFRICA, U-2, FAITH, AND THE BELIEVER'S RESPONSE

Dr Shirley Canniff and her husband talk about the work of the poor of Africa and the world as it relates to Bono of U-2. Dr Shirley also quotes from Bono's book, "On The Move", produced from the Whitehouse Prayer Breakfast of 2005. "On The Move" can be purchased at http://one.org, proceeds will go towards, "The One Campaign To Make Poverty History". The call of every true christian believer should be to help the women,the children and the orphan throughout the world, in our countries and in the global community. Did you know....Just yesterday, Harvard Medical School released a study that shows nearly 45,000 people in the United States die each year because they don't have health insurance. [1] This staggering statistic is worse than we thought -- nearly double previously reported numbers and greater than the number of deaths from drunk driving and homicide combined. With new reports coming out every day about insurance companies trying to increase their profits by dropping patients after they get seriously ill and classifying cesarean sections and experiencing domestic violence as "pre-existing conditions," these devastating numbers are bound to grow unless we act. [2] As a nation, we fail to fulfill our moral duty to love our neighbors, heal the sick and protect the vulnerable if we tolerate a system that kills so many of our brothers and sisters and leaves millions more in danger of dying preventable deaths. Our current system is failing badly, and we need to get the word out.
