*Alert* In America about 80% of the working class families are said to be about two pay checks away from being homeless. I wonder how Japan compares???

Don't Let the Pace of this World Control You. "Dreams are a projection of the kind of life you want to lead. Dreams can drive you. Dreams can make you skip over obstacles. When you allow your dreams to pull you, they unleash a creative force that can overpower any obstacle in your path. To unleash this power, though, your dreams must be well defined." By Jim Rohn

Knowledge fueled by emotion equals action. Action is the ingredient that ensures results. Only action can cause reaction. Further, only positive action can cause positive reaction.

The whole world loves to watch those who make things happen, and it rewards them for causing waves of productive enterprise.

The Bible has a great deal to say about suffering and most of it is encouraging.
I never knew the meaning of God's Word until I came into affliction. Martin Luther.

Welcome to The Family Supply Line,

In This Fast Pasted Busy World We NEED to Take Time To CARE. As Many Are in Desperate Need of Our Help. A little bit of Love and Giving can go a Long Ways . Find out how You Can make a Big Difference!

The "Tokyo Homeless Project": With only a few Volunteers has helped to Feed and Cloth the Homeless in Tokyo and Send Aid to Those in Need in Poor Countries through "networking" shipping contacts. We are Not a Government NGO/Non-Profit Organization. But we do work together with them. (We felt that to many Restrictions, Meetings, etc would prevent us from doing the Job. But we may change this stance in the future.) We've operated now for about 14 years so far.

We are subsided only by receiving Gifts, Supplies and Financial Donations to Help and Enable us to Fulfill this Mission. This Website further explains our Goals and Offers Contact information and Addresses. We want to Warmly Welcome You and Thank You for Visiting. Any help you can offer would be Greatly Appreciated.

We try to provide educational guidance to help strengthen and encourage people to face life with a positive, productive outlook. And thus become a help to their communities and the World at large. (These materials are primarily taken from the Bible and Positive Self-help materials. Desperate men Need Solid Truths to Hold on to and Pull Them Through Tough Times!)

These may seem like "lofty goals" and "high ideals" but with the help of others and Networking Together with other "like minded" organizations we've been able to accomplish more than we ever dreamed possible. We are happy to work with any religion or organization in the furthering of helping the Homeless and those in Need

We want to take this time now to Thank the 100's of "Sacrificial Givers" who have helped us over the years. We truly appreciate your help and want you to know that your giving has often deeply touched our hearts with real thankfulness. You are the reason the the Homeless and Others have been able to receive aid. You have done it all. We have only been the receivers and distributors. You are the greatest! And we appreciate it.

Please take time to click around the site and look at the links and please be thinking about how you can help (if this is you first visit) or continue to help as we have revised the site and added new ideas and possibilities that you just might get excited about.

Wishing you the Best, -Ken Kovach

Please note: Sorry about the lack of email response...had some problems...ok, now...also we no longer have a pick-up truck to do pick ups with. And we've had some time constraints along with less help.

We still receive items and then distribute them as often as we can. For now we would like to ask if you could send items to us by mail. As many of you have been. Thank you. (Takubin) And then we will pass them on as soon as we can.

An added note: Any Biblical Japanese Bible Tracks or Bibles would be greatly appreciated as a means for Spiritual encouragement and support as we will do our best to find a Happy Home for these and the Cloths. Thank you.

Ralph Marston says, "Your limitations are not imposed on you. They are accepted by you." You are not limited to the life you now live. It has been accepted by you as the best you can do at this time. Any time you're ready to go beyond the limitations currently in your life, you're capable of doing that by choosing different thoughts.

God Loves each one as if they were the Only One. You or I or a Homeless person is not lost in the Faceless Crowd called Humanity. We're each unique in His Eyes and only Present Circumstances (possibly brought on by Illness, Job Layoffs or Unforeseen Circumstances) make us look at each other Differently. Someone once wisely said, "If not by the Grace of God, there go I."

David was greatly distressed and wept. No wonder,
for he was enduring—Exile from his loved homeland—'
eating the bitter bread of banishment'. Ingratitude
from the people whom he had saved from Goliath and
the Philistines: Postponement of his acceptance by
his own people as their Divinely-appointed king: Losses of material possessions snatched from him at a single blow, and of all he held dear; and mutiny by his own followers, for 'the people spake of stoning him'. "King David, He was Homeless!"

Yet 'David encouraged himself in the Lord.'1Sam.30"
