One of my neighbors has an amazing garden which includes this fig tree. I've seen the figs grow and grow but keep staying green rather than turning an enticing purple. Every time I pass by, I think of two things ... (1) growing up eating figs in my grandma's backyard and (2) Jesus' words/lesson that used a fruitless fig tree (Matt 21:18-22). I don't want my life or my efforts at sharing Jesus with my community to be fruitless because I too want to hunger as Jesus did for the Kingdom to come.

Libertad Urban Farm update
I received this update from Tanya on our farm. It's pictoral. You can also see how much of the land we cleared on Memorial Day. It was hard work but very rewarding!
