Pronounced TAY-LOVE, Todd Smith was born out of Detroit, MI in a home of domestic violence and poverty. His dad came back to get his family after joining the arrmy and they left Detroit and traveled to different places around the world. Domestic violence and drug abuse surrounded Todd everyday. He hated his parents and hated going home. A man named Chris Spice (home with the Lord) told him one day that "prayer is the only thing that is going to help." CPS, school counselors, the police...nothing else worked for him so he tried prayer. He prayed for 2 years and it finally happened. His mom left home to get clean. Todd still lived without Christ. He went on to the University of Puget Sound where he experienced racism, on top of coming out of a violent and dysfunctional lifestyle.
One day going to hang out with a friend, he saw a man on the street with a coat on that read "John 3:16." After waiting about 15 minutes he approached his friend that was talking to the man with the coat on and as soon as he turned and laid eyes on him, it was as if he saw Jesus Christ Himself. The glory of God and the light of God was on this man so much so that he was immediately scared and froze right on the spot. This man (Gordon McClain) told him simple things he had never heard before. On Sunday November 29, 1998 during his freshman year Todd went to church with Gordon the following Sunday and gave his life to Jesus because he wanted change. He is still livng for Jesus (8 years now) and has stayed on fire for the Lord.

Thank you for the friendship and for your support in helping increase the effort to EDUCATE our youth of the dangers of drugs and violence. Our future generation depends on the youth of today. Alcohol and Drugs are plaguing our society and we need to attack it head on where it is digging its roots; with our youth in our schools. Knowledge and Truth are the key to help them stay clean. They deserve the TRUTH about all of the drugs they will incounter. They are simply too smart to accept the old 'Just Say NO' adage. Todays teens want to KNOW for themselves, and a rebellious society we have created. They will seek the truth themselves and we must educate them with it. That's what they respect; That's what they deserve! A NEW D.A.R.E. REQUIRES A NEW APPROACH! Please help spread the word and tell your friends about D.A.R.E. Feel free to visit D.A.R.E. online at www.dare.com for more info on starting a D.A.R.E. program in your area and/or to show your support. Peace :-)

On September 19 and 20 InterSession Dance and Guard Theater will present "The Harvest, ... in the shadow of Columbine", a tribute to the faith of Rachel and Cassie. InterSession is known for their visually stunning dramatic dance and color guard interpretations of stories relevant to today's generation. "The Harvest" takes an in depth look into the teenage culture, and studies the daily pressures on kids going largely unnoticed by communities. In the midst of trials and temptations, Rachel and Cassie stood up for a faith they lived for, and ultimately died for. InterSession is at the top of their game this year, winning the 2008 "Best Dance Studio of the Year" in the "Destined to Dance" awards, and adding additional gold medal winners of the Southern color guard circuit to the company. The soundtrack includes music from Flyleaf, "Across the Universe", Adema, Nine Inch Nails, The Postal Service, and more. "The Harvest" features choreography by Maxx Reed of "Dance Wars", and more cirque - style surprises! If you liked "Sabachthani", you haven't seen anything yet! Don't miss this powerful production!
