We all lose focus sometimes. I have been so obsessed with booking screenings for this tour that I forgot what I was doing it for. This weekend, I was trying to justify my loooong hours to my boyfriend, when I said that I was doing it for the North Korean refugees. I keep saying that, but never really thought about it.
At the end of the fall tour, it hit me, especially when it was revealed that we were able to raise the funds to rescue 16 refugees total. Since that time, I have had a little reminder sitting on my desk, saying that number, but I never thought about it since then. Over this past weekend, I remembered what that really meant.
Here at LiNK, we are saving lives. It's not all about the numbers. It's easy to get lost in the numbers, but that's not what we're about. Soon, we will be implementing the money from the fall tour and additional funds to rescue a total of 32 refugees this year (as soon as possible)! That is 32 people who will have freedom who otherwise wouldn't.
I am so blessed to be surrounded by a group of people who are working alongside me to help see this crisis come to an end, starting with helping out those who are most in need, as we can help them now. I can't wait to see what this new group of Nomads can achieve!
