#Congolese #refugees, Cleveland, Ohio

 https://braveknightwriters.com/blog/53-Congolese-Refugees-and-Envision-Cleveland

Why are there Congolese refugees in America? In recent days I traveled to a Congolese community in Cleveland Ohio, to help winterize gardens. My knowledge of the organization Envision Cleveland consisted of a Sunday service message but little more. My venture and contribution stirred curiosity about the situation, so I’ve done some research, as I do for all my missions. The core belief of Envision Cleveland is: Every person matters. Empowered neighbors, strengthen neighborhoods

Below I draw a quote from a story in the Cleveland Plain Dealer, Metro section, April 2018, By Brian Albright. “In recent years ethnic strife and war has claimed more than 5 million lives, either as a direct result of fighting or because of disease and malnutrition. The conflicts have been particularly brutal, marked by mass rapes, abductions, forced recruiting, use of child soldiers and sexual violence.”

The Congo region of Africa has been unstable with ethnic strife since gaining its independence from the Dutch in 1960. Many of the refugees arrived in Cleveland around 2016-17. 1355 Congolese arrived in Ohio while 84, 994 resettled nationwide. One refugee said in the Congo you may find a way to survive, but since coming to America he feels he has a chance to live. Desperation can be a great motivator, even though it requires courage to overcome situations.

Most people of any ethnic or racial background simply desire to live, love, eat, and create families. A trade or craft supports a family. Handouts destroy the human spirit as much as any other attack (such offerings should be viewed as temporary support). Much of the Congolese community desire to contribute toward success, but human spiritual frailty and an easy support system can allow evil ways to surface. A revenue flow must be linked to accountability to have successful results.

The organization Envision Cleveland works to address community safety, stability, and skills issues by securing properties identified by the city as crack houses and turning them into garden spaces. Some properties are now converted into play areas for children, while the gardens have picnic tables and raised beds for growing vegetables.

Just as our military veterans suffer from PTSD, these same issues can affect civilian refugees from war-torn areas. Envision addresses the issues by offering the community a career center where interested men and women can learn a trade. Rehabilitation of the community, individuals, and families is a must to battle alcoholism and drug addiction.

My arrival in the Congolese community came before sunrise on a Saturday, none of the other missionaries were there yet. When not familiar with the area, one must maintain an alert posture. Several figures stumbled about, and it was obvious they weren’t on their way to work. Most of the homes in the area consist of rental properties in poor repair. Waiting in a gas station parking lot, great relief came in the form of a man emerging from a van at the gas pumps. It was Tall Paul, the mission leader, who must stand 6 foot 8 inches, and with a hefty build. Inside the van were three additional mission volunteers. Reflecting on my own uncertain feelings, I imagined how a refugee must feel, plucked out of Africa and dropped into a strange neighborhood in Cleveland. Surely a better situation, but nothing familiar.

Our mission work started with collecting trash, beer bottles, cans, papers, all while on guard for needles. To me this is a sign of great disrespect for our efforts and a method evil uses to shut down the human spirit (all part of spiritual warfare).

With daylight, a vehicle with church families arrived to pull weeds and refresh the raised beds. The children had a picnic table full of snacks, and at one point gathered for a story-time break in a corner of the garden. In the battle of spirits, setting a good example and praying for others to follow is good ammunition. The battle can’t be won by force. Victory is a decision, a choice each individual must make.

“Above and Beyond Radio Silence” by William Wright is a riveting WWII narrative. It skillfully captures the intensity and challenges faced by a young radio operator. The book’s vivid descriptions and fast-paced storytelling draw readers into the heart of the war, offering a unique glimpse into the sacrifices and courage of soldiers. It’s both educational and emotionally impactful, making it a recommended read for anyone interested in personal war stories and historical insights.

Use Your Talent, fear not

 https://braveknightwriters.com/blog/54-Fear-Not-Use-Your-Talent

Jesus spoke a parable according to Matthew 25: 14-30 which has popped up in our circles several times in last few weeks. One such place was on page 176 in Unshakeable: Facing Your Giants in God’s Strength: a 90-day journey in faith. A book brought to you by The Word for You Today. Pondering the passage as written in my Life Application Study Bible New International Version, I came to some conclusions about several key elements.

Of course, the main theme as spelled out in my Bible’s interpretation is the Lord’s departure and his return as stated in Matthew 25:21. The failure of one of the servants in Matthew 25: 24-30 is caused by fear and an unwillingness to serve. In Matthew 25: 29-30 the rewards received by those not living in fear, who work and invest their blessings are said to increase, while those who live in fear will exist with weeping and gnashing of teeth. These elements jump off the page, the message is clear. So, try to envision elements which exist between the lines. We are taught to fear God, he is all powerful and the creator of all things, this makes it necessary to delve into the emotion of fear and understand the difference between survival fear and crippling fear. It takes courage to sort out the cause and effect of fear. What a paradox. God wants us to have courage, fear not, and yet fear. Our courage is a gift from the Lord that we can nurture and increase.

God tells us to invest. He rewards those who do his work and invest their talents. What does investment entail? Investment requires risk versus return assessment and takes many forms; economic, emotional, intellectual, and even time. This parable doesn’t address what obstacles were faced while the master was gone. Did any investments fail? We know by the end of the story, two of the servants succeed in increasing the blessings of the Lord, but this can’t be the entire story, can it? How many of us have courageously invested in things which failed to provide a return? Many invest and work at a marriage, invest in their children, grandchildren, a home, or financial instruments, only to receive nothing or even are robbed in return. What of those who lost out by betrayal of a spouse, ungrateful children and grandchildren, or a home whose value has fallen?

The other element I ponder is the master leaves and returns. Jesus left, but the Holy Spirit is wherever invited. God is beside us as we toil and struggle. The one who was afraid also didn’t believe, for he thought, like Adam and Eve, he could hide from God. The Master had reason for only giving this servant one talent, he already knew his heart. He entrusted one with five talents— a good start— but the man also worked, we don’t know what losses he encountered and yet recovered. Same as with the servant given two talents, I am sure God watched how each handled their losses as much as their gains.

One factor to consider is the more you have, the more you could lose. This element has the potential to generate great fear. In the end, how we respond to our troubles should weigh as much as what we gained, but there are no rewards for the coward.

God blesses us, so share blessings, work them, and use your talents without fear of loss.

Talent is an interesting word. In Jesus’ time, a talent was the equivalent of 15 years’ salary. In the ancient world of Greece and Rome, to possess five-talents would equate to being a millionaire in our times.

Do your God-given talents indicate you are a millionaire? Yes. Have you unearthed those talents?

These are some of my thoughts. I don’t offer any answers, other than find courage and serve the Lord, for everything comes from Him and belongs to Him. The words of the failed servant, condemn him, “…harvesting where you have not sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed.”

#Rails to #trails time travel

 https://braveknightwriters.com/blog/50-The-Courage-of-Children?sel=1-0

Saturday, August 5, 2023 by Brave Knight Writers

 

Riding rails-to-trails is more than bicycling, it’s time travel. A recent ride on the D&H trail in Susquehanna County in north-eastern Pennsylvania took us through coal country. The trail passes through coal towns once owned by coal companies—a type of town I am very familiar with, since I grew up in one, Sandy Creek. My first house was purchased in another, Harwick, and I was blessed to know and listen to the stories of an old miner nearing age ninety who lived nearby. Stories of going months without seeing the sun, descending into mines before daybreak, and returning to the surface after sunset. The old miner told of working coal seams 18 inches high, which meant you could lie down and dig, it saved one’s back. Imagine crawling deep into a coal vein with mega tons of rock 18 inches above. The old miner still had broad shoulders and powerful arms, built in his youth, but in time the work destroyed his health. His name was Mike, and I’ll never forget him. He purchased his home when the mine shut down and the company sold the houses.

The 38.6-mile D&H threads through such towns as Forest City, Union Dale, Herrick Center, Ararat, and Thompson, an area rich in history. The discovery of coal in the early 1870’s brought an influx of Welsh miners recruited by the Hillside Coal and Iron Company. By 1883 the mine output reached 75 daily tons, all dug by 300 men and boys.

Our blog revolves around everyday courage, and my thoughts focused on the courage needed to face the day by these workers as they descended into mines where tons of debris may fall, poison gasses might asphyxiate, and the possibility of entrapment in absolute darkness are daily threats. Desperate times drove immigrants to leave their native lands and submit to these conditions. The coal companies owned everything and everyone.

Sitting on my bicycle, experiencing my great adventure of taxing muscles and breathing the mountain air, I counted my blessings with thoughts of my children and grandchildren.

In our affluence so many problems are self-derived, as if we need drama and chaos. In years gone by, the horrors were real. In the collapse at Mine Shaft #2 on April 1, 1916, seven Welsh miners died. Boys. Ages six to eleven.

Meanwhile, the mine owners traveled in private railcars, sipped tea, and slept in luxurious estates. The dynamics of those days aren’t fully detailed in our schools or media. Where are the movies and books needed to document these times? The plight of some of our ancestors is largely ignored. The United States was born with great labor pains, suffered by children and adults who fled their foreign homes because of oppression and necessity. Few came with privilege, or in comfort. It took courage.

Untold numbers of workers were abused as the wealthy took advantage of their desperation. In 1922 the song "Crugybar o frynian caersalem" or “From Salem’s hills yonder in glory” commemorated the event, as the boys were fresh off the boat after fleeing Salem’s Hills in Northeast Wales.

D&H stands for the Delaware and Hudson railroad and canal company, originating in 1823 to establish communications between the Delaware and Hudson rivers. As an independent railroad it provided a connection between New York and Canada for 150 years, but in 1991 Canadian Pacific Railroad purchased it. The D&H was known as ‘North America’s oldest continually operated transport company’. Norfolk Southern Railway completed acquisition of the D&H South line on September 19, 2015.

The branch of the D&H that ran between Lake George and Glens Falls, New York, was converted to the Warren County Bikeway in several phases, starting in 1978 and finishing in 2000. The portion of the D&H we rode was designated ‘trail of the year’ in 2021. We dedicate this post to the Brave Knights and children of courage. Never forget the sacrifices of those who came before us.

The knights of old lived in fortresses and wore armor as protection from the enemy. Today, brave knights live among us and the armor they need is not made of metal. Today’s battles and wars have become more spiritual than physical, so our armor needs to be the stuff of strong belief and principles. Many have asked me why we call ourselves Brave Knight Writers. The term formed long ago deep within my heart. It came to me in a time of deep despair and loss. During the events of those times, I realized how precious our time is, and how blessed I was. Over the years I longed to share those days with others, not to bring pity or attention on me, but to put people in touch with their blessings.

The death of one’s child changes our view of life, the event brings one to an intersection. Many roads lead away to unknown destinations. Your head fills with voices, you find taking your next breath burdensome, but you also know you must go on. After my son’s death we joined a group called Bereaved Parents, a support group for those who had suffered the loss of a child. After several meetings I decided the group wasn’t the road I wanted to travel. Some parents had been attending for years. It was as if they had sat down at the intersection, instead of choosing a new path. This desire to not move on I fully understand, you want time to stop, the feeling of leaving your loved one behind is strong and no one wants to do such a thing.

My answers formed over time, no solution came easy, and I started down many wrong roads. I also realized I could return to the intersection. The road I finally chose was one of celebration and gratefulness for all my blessings. It wasn’t an easy road. The baggage proved heavy, I needed to discard most of it before I could continue. The first item I put in the knapsack was the five and a half years I was blessed to be with my son. Especially important were his final words in the months we spent together after he came out of his long coma. He spoke with wisdom, and not in the words of a five-year-old. He clung to a single toy; one I didn’t realize the significance of until I gained more knowledge. His toy of choice was what he called the brave knight, “the bravest knight of all” he would declare. He said it had more courage than anyone else in the hospital.

Courage filled the hospital, from the children who fought for their lives, to the staff who stood beside them in thick and thin. Here were the surgeons who dared to open the skulls of cancer patients to extract tumor tissues, the nurses who tended to the daily needs of the children and interacted with grieving parents. Staff burnout usually set in within five years. The brave knight my son embraced turned out to be the one described in Ephesians 6:10-18. This would be the armor I would need to travel the road I chose, but for someone who lacked great courage, it turned out to not fit so well. In many instances the armor irritated my flesh, itched, rubbed my skin raw, and felt heavy and burdensome. Many times, I laid bits of it aside which left me vulnerable to life-threatening wounds.

 You see, I’m not the brave knight I write about, I struggle to be one. Therefore, we write about other, more formidable knights and their spiritual battles. Our desire is to inspire. Every minute we are given is a blessing and blessings are meant for sharing.

What can be said about this novel that may do it justice? So many cliches come to mind: 'tour de force', 'mind-blowing', 'life-changing', etc. And they're all somewhat accurate in describing this excellent first novel penned by a very talented husband and wife duo. But this work deserves much more than just a few overused phrases, none of which accounts for its impact on this reader. In terms of scope, it may not be the so-called "Great American Novel" - neither geographically, since the setting is pretty much limited to a certain region (Havasupai) within the Grand Canyon, nor in terms of its cast of characters, confined mostly to Russ, the story's psychically scarred protagonist, and 'Chief', an old and more than merely spiritual Native American with whom Russ joins in a quest that turns out to mean everything to both men.
At one point, the Chief relates to Russ an old Native-American myth wherein an aged warrior tells his young grandson that within each person's body are two wolves -- one good and one evil -- both always fighting for control over the person whose body they inhabit. When the boy asks his Grandfather which one wins, the old man replies, "the one that you feed".
Having been a reader for just over seventy years now, I can say that most likely everything I've read over that span has gradually influenced my life and my way thinking (not always to the good), some of it more than others. But up until my having read Havasupai, only two books really moved me on the Richter Scale: The Holy Bible and "The Book: On The Taboo Against Knowing Who You Are" by Alan Watts. Suffice it to say that if you do read Havasupai, you will definitely be feeding the "good wolf".

 

Leading the Way to Victory by Mark C. Vlahos USAF-RET
Thursday, February 9, 2023 by Brave Knight Writers

Courage takes many forms and addresses every aspect of existence. I refer our readers to Leading the Way to Victory by Mark C. Vlahos. He chronicles the 60th Troop Carrier Group’s history from 1940-1945, quite a courageous undertaking in and of itself. Colonel Vlahos served in the United States Air Force for 29 years, so who better to offer such a beautiful treasure to honor the veterans who became known as ‘The Greatest Generation’? Mark understands the sacrifices made by all those who serve, whether in war or peace. His assignments included command of a C-130 squadron in combat, Vice Wing Commander of the 314th Airlift Wing at Little Rock Air Force Base, and a wide range of operational flying experiences. These assignments offered many occasions to overcome fear and remain calm in the face of adversity. Colonel Vlahos studied at Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University. At Webster University and the Industrial College of the Armed Forces he earned master’s degrees. He’s a member of the Troop Carrier/Tactical Airlift Association and the Leon B. Spencer Research Team of the National World War II Glider Pilot Committee.

In Leading the Way to Victory, he preserves and lists those who served in the 60th TCG, not just the officers but the privates, corporals, and sergeants. Most history books acknowledge in mass the soldiers who died, were wounded, or performed outrageous acts of courage—while naming the high ranking officers in command. Mr. Vlahos drills down into the everyday workings of what it takes to achieve victory. He offers insight into what makes the difference between having an army of soldiers gathered to force others to submit, or a group of dedicated soldiers in the cause of liberty and principles. The 60th as a group stands out in a time of war, it’s mission didn’t directly wreak havoc and destruction on an innocent populace or even armed troops. These courageous soldiers went into war zones and behind enemy lines unarmed, even their aircraft had very limited armor. They flew missions in the dark of night, into mountainous regions occupied by hostiles, and landed by torch light. Much to Mr. Vlahos’ credit and detail, he examines everyday challenges faced by support personnel, like finding a sheet of plywood and painting it so staff can have a blackboard, or painting a slogan on the fuselage of an aircraft to please the pilot and crew. These are the unremarkable, remarkable feats found in this history book.

For a personal touch, Mr. Vlahos documents the actual words of those who survived, and these anecdotes take this book to an entirely new level. To have someone share their personal experience reaches the soul, and touches on the emotions of these soldiers. So many World War II soldiers saw such horrors, they could offer only silence after the war. They came home in search of joy and peace—and suppressed many memories. The ones who wrote of the experience offer us insight as to what war is really like, not a Hollywood glorified version. We thank Mr. Vlahos for his hard work and dedication to offer this treasure to the descendants of those who served, and to the American people so they can come to grips with what it takes to be free. The reader will find photographs, lists, maps, and charts along with well-structured and refined text. An awesome feature is the index which lists soldiers by name and indicates what pages mention them. Many thanks for publishing this book, and best wishes to Colonel Vlahos.

GO. Slay Dragons
Saturday, December 10, 2022 by Brave Knight Writers

Our Brave Knight Writer’s blog is dedicated to those who demonstrate courage in all aspects of life. Spiritual warfare doesn’t take a holiday or weekend, it never rests. This month’s post centers on parents embracing circumstances which fall far outside the realm of their initial hopes and dreams. Commitment and sacrifice can shower unforeseen rewards and benefits onto those who chose the hard path. We have a dear friend who personifies the example of such courage and fortitude. We’ll refer to him by his initials, G.O.

Where do I begin? First let me list the physical challenges of G.O., and mention, he never complains or exhibits anything but gratefulness for his life’s blessings. G.O. has Crohn’s disease, arthritis locks his fingers, he’s experienced kidney failure and joint replacement surgeries. There is a bounce in his step, a constant smile, and his greetings give no indications of his suffering. He’s in his sixties and cares for his forty-something daughter. He serves on several boards and advocates for people with disabilities. He invests in real estate and mentors younger real estate investors. He is a substitute teacher at a trade school. He has designed equipment to aid in the care of the handicapped.

Bottom line, he makes no excuses and lives a full, productive life.

Inspiration comes to mind when I think of G.O. Thoughts of a bad day get crushed. The words he once uttered to a peer says it best. In the breakroom at work a fellow worker sulked and complained about how unfair life was. This man was in perfect health, single, and flopped a million dollars around in the stock market. When G.O. walked into the breakroom, he asked everyone how they were. The sulker blurted out, “Lousy” to which G.O. calmly replied, “I’ll trade you one of my best days, for one of your worst days, any time.” Silence fell on the room; everyone felt the shame press on their shoulders. The sulker slunk away, but everyone felt their own self-pitying ways.

You see, not only does G.O. endure his health issues, but his daughter has cerebral palsy, is confined to a wheelchair, and must use a voice synthesizer to speak. G.O. often speaks of the absolute joy he finds in his daughter, who accompanies him everywhere. They hold inspirational discussions at colleges and high schools, where his daughter jokes and tosses out wit and wisdom. G.O. claims his life and character has been enriched by experiencing life with her. They both love cheering on their favorite football team. Recently, I met them in a sports bar where we watched a Steeler’s game.

 G.O. says when his daughter was born, the doctors recommended letting her die, that she would be a burden, a detraction from a full life. G.O. and his wife agreed with each other, not the medical wisdom. They would commit to her care and center on her functionality. G.O. will tell you, his daughter added more to enriching his life than anyone can comprehend.

G.O. had a son who in his teen years developed encephalitis lethargica, and died from it in his early twenties. G.O. cared for him for 5 years as his son slipped into a catatonic state. Awakenings, starring Robin Williams, highlights the struggles of the disease.

 G.O. exemplifies every quality of a Brave knight, he is the stuff of heroes, and I am blessed to know him and his family. Courage, character, dedication, dignity, and commitment get pumped through his veins by the biggest, most powerful heart I have ever witnessed.

Can anyone question the war on his spirit? The triumph of his victories? His courage is spelled out in caps. Having a bad day? Give my friend G.O. a call, he’ll offer you a trade. The last time G.O. and his daughter were at my house, we were all discussing some of life’s challenges when we suddenly heard his daughter’s voice synthesizer, “Life can be a struggle.”

Have a blessed a day. Try to be a Brave Knight. Slay dragons.

#Brave #Knight #Writers blog Plain Values Magazine

 

Plain Values Magazine

In using the term Plain Values, talking them up or talking about them seems counter intuitive. The people and stories in their magazine are plain folk, living out the routines needed to fulfill daily living. So, why would I blog about them on a site about courage? Well, because in today’s world, their choices and lives go against the grain, the mainstream doesn’t acknowledge or condone their lifestyle choices. Plain Values’ embracement of a simple way of life contrasts with Madison Avenue. Plain Values touts enrichments beyond money and fame. Simply put, they value authentic life, all forms and aspects. So, let’s try to point out some highlights in our short blurb, and suggest you look at their publication. You can view a link on our Indie Author Friends page. https://braveknightwriters.com/indie-authors-we-recommend

First, go to their ‘About’ section and you find as a young couple, they investigated and pursued the option of adoption. This is an unselfish and much needed move in our society. In other posts we have stated how much courage adoption requires. To take it a step further, the children chosen by them will require a great deal of understanding and larger doses of love. This young couple set out to create a very special and shining example of what life should be, with love as the cornerstone. One key to love is turning your life and will over to God. In their prayers, they ask God to bring them the children He wants them to have.

Ten years ago, these fine people started a publication to inform people of how rich a life lived in love can be. This step took many forms of courage. I think the best way to sum up their approach is by offering an excerpt from their ‘About’ page. “We do that purposefully because we want to be well-rounded, well read, and deeply thoughtful people. Our favorite people are those who have walked sections of life’s road that are bumpy and hard and have not given up on God’s purpose for their lives. We believe it makes us deeper, more soulful, and if we let it, wiser for the road ahead.” There you have it. The publication profiles people from different situations who overcome and thrive by embracing simple values such as love. If you are struggling, the best way to put your struggles into perspective is to focus on things other than self.

Remember, if you want a rich harvest, you must cultivate and nurture first. Plain Values seeks to cultivate a community anchored in authentic living. The people in the magazine live what they write. They help children and inspire adults to address the challenges we all face with a lifted spirit. In the cultural turmoil of today, they are reimagining education and helping the orphaned and the unwanted find their forever homes. Homeschoolers, they have moved on to building a one-room schoolhouse called Juneberry Hill. Maybe it’s time for our society to realize that education should center on family needs and values. This shift may have grassroot benefits to the larger community. Their publication is broken into interesting sections, Confessions of a Steward, Roots and Wings, The Roundtable, Homestead Living, The Healing Land, The Widow’s Path, Honest Conversations, Serving Our Neighbors, and a section called From the Publishers. This includes, One Minute with Marlin, Room to Bloom, Juneberry Hill, and bonus sections of All Things Outdoors, Business Spotlights, and Our Heritage. Their publication has blossomed into almost 50,000 homes, with an estimated readership of 300,000. See if you can find any brave knights within their pages. We see them all wearing the full armor of God.
