| We're all on a journey... |
| welcome to Common Ground. |
| Common
Ground is our non profit organization focused on "meeting people where they are and making a difference in their lives". We do that through special events, life coaching, books, public speaking and music. Our messages are inclusive and focused on the power that exists in love and an honest journey. We like to laugh a lot while we're at it. Human beings are funny creatures so, we've got a lot of good material as we're groovin' along with two young boys and a full life. Our heart is to encourage and leave people inspired to know that "anything is possible in Love." |
In
our lives, Stacey's
health hit a snag in October and continued on in a
challenged place for months and then she collapsed in a store
in June. We've been in the process of a lot of
doctor's visits mixed with natural remedies and forced rest.
For us, the priority of "health" is something that has struck us as a
foundational building block - we're grateful for where we have it and
working hard to restore it for Stacey.
going
through severe depression and had blood clots in his lungs and
throughout his body. His life was literally on the line.
We rallied his friends
and were able to give almost $1,800 to his family which
helped them to keep their house, pay
bills, and have a Christmas with their children. This man is in a
complete turnaround, is performing again,
rebuilding his family and his health and Common
Ground got to be part of some practical encouragement for his
family. Woo hoo!
In
May, Irene Dunlap
and Stacey,
representing Common
Ground, joined forces to put together a two-day event "A Harvest of Hope".
www.aharvestofhope.com It was a garden event featuring
lectures from master gardeners on self-sustainability, square-foot
gardening and healthy living while we also created and sold wares for
the garden and home. This
event took months to plan and raised $9,000 and we were
able to send the proceeds from our event to two organizations: Feeding America
(which provides food pantries all over the country with food) and ASAP (A Self-Help
Assistance Program) in Zimbabwe which provides local villagers with the
seeds and education to plant and harvest in a nation that has been
starving to death. We are planning on second event for next
May.


In July, we headed out to Arizona to record three podcast shows with
Darin Hufford,
author of "The
Misunderstood God" and continue impacting
audiences with the freedom message that is found in God's
love.
This past month, August, we have become friends with Kate and Johnny
Brooks who have two orphan homes in Kenya.
They are a young
couple in their mid-thirties with 4 children of their own (one more on
the way) and 8 orphan girls as well as a home for boys. They
have gone days and weeks without water which is beyond comprehension
with 20 people to feed, bathe and care for. We just raised almost
$1,300 which will provide water for the next three months.
We are asking if you will support Common Ground from now until January
with your monthly commitment as we focus on getting this message
completed and out there in the world where it can make a
difference. Any monthly commitment of $15, $25, $40 is a
tremendous help or you can give a one-time gift, as well.
