Members of Youth Against Complacency and Homelessness Today prepare to hand out clothes and coffee to the Philadelphian homeless on the night of November 18. During the week of November 14-18, YACHT ran Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week, which was a time dedicated to becoming aware of poverty issues around the world. Other HAHA week

“All the believers were together and had everything in common” (Acts 2:47). Welcome to Eastern University. Here, we spend time with believers in classrooms, in residence halls and in socializing. It is clear that we are in a Christian bubble, where we are in companionship with believers and sharing the love of Christ. But does

I decided to write this article two weeks ago, when the American death toll in Iraq was still shy of 2,000. But I knew the milestone was coming. It doesn’t take a prophet to see a cycle of violence that kills with drumbeat consistency. I marched in protest back in 2003, hollering at the White

IJM, which started in 1997, is a nationwide group that strives to fight against injustice, specifically: “sexual exploitation, slavery and oppression,” according to the official website, www.ijm.org. “We
