For future reference...

Amazingly many people look at me weird when I tell them that our high school summer missions trip was to a corner in Pasedena called 'blood corner' and to a church on Ward Street in Compton, which happens to be one of the worst for gang violence.

To my surprise, people wonder why we went there. The best answer I have thought of so far is that to ask the questioner why they don't go there...



I haven't been convinced yet...

Someone asked me how I managed to come out without getting shot.

I like to tell people I have friends in Compton... and then see their facial expressions.

It makes for a nice intro to the whole story.
