While on my lunch break today I was doing some investigating on what Congress had been up to yesterday and I came across this resolution called "Supporting the goals and ideals of the International Year of Sanitation." I had to read it just because I thought it sounded silly. You can read the resolution on the link below.

In the resolution it references the "Millenium Development Goals." I had never heard of these goals and did a google search on them and found they are 8 goals agreed to by the countries of the UN to reduce certain social ailments that plague our world by the year 2015.

I was encouraged by the goodwill of men and women everywhere who work towards these lofty but important goals. I thought I would make you aware of them too so that you might be inspired by the good in our world that does still take place.

You can read them here:

God bless you in all of your good efforts as well.
