Nettie spent last year in San Francisco as an apprentice. As a novice for the next 2 years, she needs to raise an additional $2000 in support each month. This is a lot! I would like all of you to consider supporting her - either regularly or with a one time gift. InnerCHANGE is an ecumenical ministry, so no need to get your knickers in a knot about supporting or not supporting a particular Christian denomination. If you want to support Nettie (or get more information), you can click here, and search for Antoinette Spitz.
From Nettie's Blog:
InnerCHANGE is a Christian order among the poor, and I am both proud and humbled to be walking within it. Our foundation is Micah 6:8 - we seek to do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with our God. We do this through relationships in our neighborhoods…where strangers become neighbors, neighbors become friends, and friends become beloved family.
From the InnerCHANGE website:
We are communities of missionaries living in poor, marginalized neighborhoods around the world – places most people want to avoid or ignore. We seek to live out the good news of Jesus among the poor, both with words and deeds.
We neither glamorize our calling nor diminish its importance. We are moved by the life and love of Jesus, enticed by his goodness. We have sensed his call to take up our crosses and follow: knowing that as we lose our life for his sake, we will truly find it. Despite the enormity of the missionary task, we do not pursue this work with long faces. Rather, we rejoice in our opportunity to be messengers of the King as he invites all people - poor and rich alike - to his banquet table.
