Hello,
I was navigating through your blog (great resource by the way) and noticed that you have a resources section with helpful links. I wanted to know if you would be willing to place a link to ChristianVolunteering.org and/or UrbanMinistry.org in the resources section of your website. Also I wanted to know if you would allow us to syndicate your blog feed. UrbanMinisty.org receives over 100,000 page views per month. Your new blog entries would be fed into homepage. I would encourage you to create a free profile on our site ChristianVolunteering.org to take advantage of the networking and recruitment capabilities of the site. Keep up the great work.
