Quote of the Week

Have you been called to go out on a limb for God? You can bet it
won't be easy. Limb-climbing has never been easy. Ask Joseph.
Or, better yet, ask Jesus. He knows better than anyone the cost
of hanging on a tree.

-- Max Lucado

Romanian Missions Trip

During the summer 2007, Maria, Julia and Steve set off to Romania with a van filled with everything they had been given for their trip. This included food, clothes, blankets, crutches and much more. They travelled to different orphanges and villages giving the people what they had brought. many of the families live in very small houses, maybe just one room with a bed and a cooker and it house 2 parents and maybe 4-5 children. one lady invited them in for dinner in an old pigsty that had been convernted into their house.



'This little girl lives on the street and the marks on her face are either rat bites or impetigo. The poverty was something I has never seen before. I have retuned to Ireland with a new gratefullness of all that have and all I take for granted on a daily basis.'

Do I Need To Set Goals To Be Successful?

1. What is Goal Setting?
Goal setting is a process that helps you get clear on what you want, make an action plan to help you get there, launch into action, and persist until you reach your destination or find a better one.

Earl Nightingale put it this way, "People with goals succeed because they know where they are going. It's as simple as that."

2. Why Personal Goal Setting Works.

The first ingredient necessary for success is that you have to decide exactly what it is that you want. This is where many people stumble. They never decide what it is that they really want in life.

Once you have decided what it is that you want, the second ingredient is to determine the price you have to pay to get what you want, and then resolve to pay that price by establishing your priorities and getting to work. Many who get past the first ingredient never apply the second one. They don't understand that you have to pay the price in full before you can claim your prize. Goal Setting is a process that helps you focus your time and energy on your targets through careful and deliberate planning.

3. What is a Goal?
A goal is a well-defined target that gives you clarity, direction, motivation, and focus. Goals are tools that help you to make a positive change in your life. They eventually help form a new habit or change an existing habit.

Goals are the stepping stones to success. Look at your life today, decide what you want and then begin to make goals that will help you to get there.
