So, we decided we'd like to make the switch over to a new site for the Revolutionary Media Store! In doing this, we will be able to offer a greater variety of awesome world changer gear, in more designs, and at better pricing. Exciting stuff!

Stop by and check it out: t-shirts, mouse pads, buttons, stickers and more. Previous designs, with a few new looks as well. Keep checking back as we continue to add more throughout the week.

I spent the evening at Avonlea Acres, shooting portraits of Kathy, Vanessa, and Sadie for our Ashes to Beauty multimedia piece.

Kathy and I spent the most time together. She is an amazing and stalwart woman who is learning from mistakes, finding joy in her position as a child of God, and blossoming into a beautiful woman. At 4 months pregnant, Kathy is doing her best to learn what it is to be the mother that she knows she can be - and in the power of God.

I think few people could have the resilience she's had. When life falls apart and there's no where to go, when all hope seems lost...even there grace is found.

Kathy is a testament to that.

Imagine This:

You are nineteen years old.
A former high school cheerleader and beauty queen.
Brought up in a Catholic family.
Straight A student in school.
Now on your own.
Managing a substance addiction.
And you get the news of your life: Pregnant.

Is it really possible? Is this really happening? Is it true that someone else's life is forming inside of you? You're not ready for this. You're just a kid yourself. But not anymore. Now you're also a Mom.

Imagine yourself in these shoes. Imagine that one test could change the direction of your life forever. Imagine how scared you would be to know your pregnancy isn't supported by those closest to you. Imagine how you would feel to suddenly be on your own, thrust into the "real" world, full of couch surfing and house hopping, paired with doctor's visits and maternity shopping.

Now, imagine a home for girls like you. A place where you could come - without judgment - to start afresh and begin a new life for you and your unborn child.

You don't have to imagine anymore. This place exists. And it is called Avonlea Acres.

RevMedia is honored to be a part of a new project that will raise support and awareness for a Christian ministry that strives to give unwed mothers the tools they need to be active, healthy, and productive mothers and members of society. Staffed with qualified individuals who come in to help these girls with finances, spiritual issues, schooling, and a plethora of other issues, Avonlea Acres seeks to give ordinary people something to believe in: Generation Change.

Unprepared mothers will raise children unprepared for the harsh reality of modern society. The affects of this are grave indeed - and we need only turn on the TV to see it.

Over the next 6 weeks, RevMedia is on a fast track to give Avonlea Acres, and the girls who live there, an additional tool for fund raising: a short documentary piece highlighting the program and the new life it's given to it's girls and their children.

Follow us document their story.

You'll believe in Ashes to Beauty too.
