Elevator Pitch. This is a quick overview of what this blog is about. Thanks to Michael Hyatt for his personal help with this.

Allendale, SC is the most impoverished area in our state. Decades of hardships and lack of visionary leadership have helped create a culture of generational poverty, and of consumption and entitlement, which drains resources from the state as a whole. We moved here in early 2011 to be a part of the community and to be a part of what God is doing, for the ultimate goal of long-term change. I write this blog to inform the readers of what we are observing and experiencing, to invite people to be involved, and to inspire others to engage in their own communities.

Important posts. Here are 4 important articles that can give you a quick overview:

• 4 Shocking Facts About Allendale Demographics
• What’s Our Ultimate Purpose in Allendale?
• A Vision for Allendale: Looking Back, Looking Ahead
• Why Ask for Financial Support
• Although We’ve Come . . .
