Hi Kathryn,
The Jesus Christians do more than promote live organ donations. There are only a few of us (about 30 people, scattered over four continents), half of whom have donated a kidney.
The entire community 'lives by faith', meaning that we trust God to take care of our material needs, and just concentrate on doing what we can to "build his kingdom of love and faith". A lot of our time is spent distributing Christian literature (in particular lately, we have beenn distributing a Christian novel which I wrote, called 'Survivors'), but in Kenya we are heavily involved in teaching English to about 4,000 students a week. Before I wrote the novel, I produced English teaching aids (including a special dictionary which uses only 900 words to define all of the 30,000 other words listed in the dictionary).
But hey.... whoa, Dave! She just wants to know about the RVs. Well, to reach as many people as possible, our members travel a lot, and because we try to live as frugally as possible, we generally find that living in an RV beats paying rent.
Thank you for your curiosity. As you can see, I love answering questions!]
