For the last few months I've had the priviledge of writing for a new digital magazine: Autism OZ. As the name suggests, it comes out of Austrailia. It's a really wonderful supportive and inspiring publication and I am very excited to be a part of it. I love the international flavor from Austrailia to South Africa to the UK to the US and elsewhere. It is packed full on information and inspiration.

Personally, it has enabled me to inspire more people. For Issue 2, I wrote about Kyle's shoebox project which I have shared here on this blog. We created a wonderful video of Kyle loading a box and delivering it. It was paired with my daughter Leah's song "Attitude Is Everything". When I shared it with Shoebox Ministry and the pastor of the church where he delivers the boxes, they were deeply moved. They had no idea the effort it took for Kyle to make one of the boxes they see him deliver each week. They could see the challenges he overcomes everytime he makes one. Awareness is  a beautiful thing and leads only to more acceptance.

Below is the straight scoop about Autism OZ right from the editor's mouth. If you are an autism peep, I invite you to check out the full edition of Autism OZ by taking advantage of the first digital download for just $1.00! or purchasing a subscription. It is self funded.

In the meantime, here's a link to my sibling articles this month, as well as a wonderful note from the pastor about the Shoebox Article plus link to that video if you missed it. Autism OZ Sibling Article
