I just started reading your book in Youth group today, I'm a yearish younger than you, and I'm soo inspired by your story, I think it's so awesome what you are doing for AIDS victims. I hope to help the world someday too, you are such an inspiration!!!!

Austen, I'm a 62 year old woman, and after I read your book, I decided it was one of the most inspiring and uplifting books I've read in a long time! We're all children of God, no matter our ages, and I feel it's never too late to have the excitement and inspiration of a child to do God's will....He loves us where we are and needs us as who we are, and now is the time! Thank you, Austen for such a wonderful work of love and for sharing it with the world. I am considering sponsering a child.

Hey Austin I think its really cool what youre doing and I have also read your book. Its so cool how we can live a life for God yet were living it out for others once we accept God into our lives so i just want to thank your for setting a great example for these kids and i am 14 as well and I just wish I could go to Haiti to meet my sponsers from world vision

Well, then, see you in 2011! Even though we'll probably have no idea who each other are :P

[spasmatazz]

*high-five!* No actually... I didn't go this year. :( But i will next probably lol

[DwarfPrincess123]

Hee hee, so did I. And Adam (lead singer of Stellar Kart) offered to give his phone number out to the audience, he looked slightly flattered and slightly embarrassed. :P

Oh my gosh, we most likely went to the same concert! We both went to the Portland show! Oh my gosh, high-five! *high-fives*

I met him yesterday, too, and got his autograph on my copy of his book! It was pretty amazing :)

Keep up everything you're doing, Austin! You have inspired so many of your sisters in Christ, including me, and we all love you! :)
