Just New-Just Love/Out Reach

Mission statement, one of many 2 flourish >>>

I am not an artist, 2 tell u what is right or wrong. I claim no final truth. I am simply sharing my heart, & deeply spirited inspirations that are w/in me, & feel so incredibly warm & powerful, that I just absolutely cannot keep them 2 myself. What has become, so real, & so true 4 me inside, has taken my every waking breath, & everytime I can share a heartwarming blessing, in song, melody, thought, or feeling, & touch someone elses heart w/tremendous joy, or even bring a true smile of hope, I feel like I get an extra breath, & I only become more enlightened, then purely led, 2 continue listening, & sharing. Now I know in my heart, the principles of Christ, that I have, & will continue working on, every single day, & momentary opportunity I have. I believe the Lord has opened up many avenues of invitation 2 his word, & love, 2 fit each of our unique blessings, & character of understanding. And I know, the right opportunities 2 learn, cherish, & live in this love, are there 4 all of us, when we continually, & full-heartedly seek 2 understand what is available 4 us, & what is right 4 us in our lives. Involving your thoughts, & actions w/all consideration of your fellow brothers well-being, & highlighting the brilliance in patience, trust, compassion, & forgiveness, abides right inside the practices of these principles of Christ. Now the only true questioning, that needs 2 happen here, regarding our pace, confidence, security, & way, in our understanding of what is right, or wrong 4 ourselves, is between our individual selves, & our creator. >>>

I will learn, & share more of my mission/visions, as this dream grows on. I really do hope everyone can feel the true heart in my music, that has been given 2 me, 2 share, & help uplift, the coldest of hearts.

I am just @ the beginning of this heart-felt journey, It took over a dozen years of drinking hard, hurting the people around me, including myself, & losing any possible opportunity that was laid before me. I have always been an artist, composer, & singer, but never did I realize, until about 4 years ago, that I could be available 4 the Lord, 2 use as a very blessed tool, 2 reach out, warm hearts, & remind us all, of the hope, & faith, that lives w/in us all, >> Only 2 spread the brotherhood, in compassion, balance, & trust, in him. I now only have a tiny studio 4 one, & a small apt. 2 lay my head, but my heart, & the visions, that our great Lord sends through me, feel as large as the universe. Here I am, not only networking a dream 4 myself, but an inner-compassion, 2 use everything God has givin me, 2 help others recognize hope, & in any possible way I can, help them build dreams 4 themselves. As U may hear, my music is written, w/ many parts, & I am open 2 attract the right musicians, that can not only play, but feel the music in their heart, & play with me, 4 a brighter, & larger sound, which is part of my vision. If those people don't come around? Then I guess I'll still be doin' it this way, (No problem here, I love what the Lord is giving me). I Plan 2 build the beauty & finance in this music, 2 create, & be open 2 new innovative ideas, in housing, & treating millions, with both preventable illnesses, & non-preventable illnesses. Please know I couldn't sum all of this up, w/this little note, but I think U may get an idea, & hopefully, some inspiration will travel, to & from our hearts, & minds. May the Lord bless U all, & all that U do!! Don't worry, I'll have more news coming 2 U about this mission & it's progress very soon!! Love Lenny-

Here is a letter that I have written 2 send to the right people involving grants & such >>>

First off, I would like the Gospel/Christian music that I write & record, to be heard, & represent what my organization(s) stand(s) for. I would like to own properties that are available for ANY types of person to live in. However, unlike your average subsidized/low income housing establishments, there will be a system, & guidelines with numerous opportunities of/in this housing. (This will be quite extensive, so please understand, I may not be able to get down to the very very specifics in this plan, until further opportunity to meet/talk live & such). Those that are eligible because of there disability, will have the opportunities to learn, grow, work, & understand only what they can, suiting their specific illness(s), upon individual care, & designated, dedicated time. Now here's the start of something I call the "spring plan". The way this works, is as each new person comes into the facility, they will have direction, or be directed, in where exactly they will live, & what they MAY be capable of doing, involving their personal self in this community. When a new person comes in, & no one, or not enough people, in the staff, volunteer committee, or new opportune community individual, understands, or doesn't have enough knowledge in helping this person along, the "spring plan" comes in, & the need for a new worker/opportunist is put out there. Now, aside from non-preventable illnesses, people with severe preventable illnesses will be allowed to come live here as well. There will be strict guidelines for them to earn there living, unlike your average treatment centers. They will have the opportunity to have there very own place, but they will attend regular weekly groups, slowly learn, & become guided into what work field, & interests, that fits the design of their particular blessings. Of course they will be drug tested regularly as well. Now a big difference here, in the way many of our subsidized/low-income housing institutions are ran, is that all of the individuals in this community will be involved w/nearly everything about it. Some residents may have learned gardening skills in one of our many classes, & they will be in charge of all the gardening one-day, & then many others will follow. Some may be in charge of the maintenance crew, some may learn how to cook & serve, & be a part of a growing food service establishment, right in the community. Some may just simply change light bulbs & wash windows.(these are just a few examples). Even small jobs like that, can mean so, so much to a sick person, who normally just gets a shack to live in, & ignored. Individuals with incredible learning disabilities, can, & will learn how to keep their place clean, & groom themselves properly. It might even be an X-alcohol/drug addict, who is in charge of checking up on these specific people, & helping them fall into a routine, & feel good about themselves. Just like there will be a large, & growing amount of services & opportunities, in various classes, lessons, arts/crafts & more, there will be opportunities for the residents to get, and/or stay in touch w/their spirituality. In the beginning, I vision it as having a very non-denominational program, & availability to the Lord. But maybe, as time goes on, we will be able to filter in a mix of religion, as long as the basic, & individual comfort standards, for living, is safe, & well respected. This community is about opportunity, not control. This is not just a dream. It is much larger than a dream. It is a vision of love that has guided my heart, so far, & so deep w/in, through my past battle w/alcoholism, through every heartache that lives & dies inside of me, & around me. It's M.O.A.
