Faith and Economics in Elkhart...

This evening I was on Facebook and I saw a link to the PBS story that aired a couple weeks ago. PBS did a news story on how Christian organizations in Elkhart are responding to the economic crisis. As you may or may not know, Elkhart has been hit really hard with unemployment hovering around 20% (and maybe higher). I was encouraged to hear about how Christians are responding in this incredibly difficult time. Nelson Kraybill, the AMBS president, was interviewed as a part of the piece.

(I don't know why the link doesn't work. You'll just have to copy and paste the URL.)

if you want to add links, you might need to kind of "attach" the link. So when you're typing your post, you highlight what you want the link to be and click on the globe with what looks like a chain link. And then you put the url address in there and it should work. Hope that helps!

Faith and economics...something we should really be thinking about all the time, but these days especially...
