on mission…

I had to write a mission statement for one of my grad school classes, so here it is…

It is the desire of human beings to be known. We desire to be known by our God, our families, our friends, and our neighbors. Being known is being loved. The rich often have easy access to the tools and audience needed to make themselves known, but the poor are often excluded. Being known restores dignity and identity to the marginalized and oppressed. A powerful method for knowing someone is hearing their story. The power of a story can change the world, but only when it is heard and shared. I will help all people—but especially the poor—access the tools, medium, and skills they need to tell their story.
