When I think of all the stuff wrong with this world, it just takes something like this to make things better.  What a blessing Carter has been to us!  So full of joy and interest.

I returned last week to Colorado, the state where I was born, and one of my favorite places.  The scenery and beauty always remind me of the Creator and the responsibility we, as followers of Christ, have in caring for it.  At Mennonite Central Committee, we have created a new part to our Web site, titled "Care For Creation."  Through it we want to live up to the following words, "Let's answer God's call to serve as stewards of creation and live justly with respect to the needs of our global neighbors." It is a call to examine ourselves as well as the wider world community in respect to caring for God's creation.  Please go to this part of the site and see what we are doing, thinking and planning in this effort.  http://www.mcc.org/careforcreation/
