All he wants is to launch his golden iPod into space the way Carl Sagan (the man, not the dog) launched his Golden Record on the Voyager spacecraft in 1977. From Colorado to New Mexico, Las Vegas to L.A., Alex records a journey on his iPod to show other lifeforms what life on earth, his earth, is like. But his destination keeps changing. And the funny, lost, remarkable people he meets along the way can only partially prepare him for the secrets he’ll uncover—from the truth about his long-dead dad to the fact that, for a kid with a troubled mom and a mostly not-around brother, he has way more family than he ever knew.Jack Cheng’s debut is full of joy, optimism, determination, and unbelievable heart.

  • Seagoing Cowboys and the Heifer Project: the Maryland Story
    Seagoing Cowboys and the Heifer Project: The Maryland Story by Peggy Reiff Miller This article first appeared in Catoctin History, Fall/Winter 2005 Do you want your summer vacation to include a free trip to Europe and $150 in cash when you return? You can at the same time be helping to relieve the acute food shortage in Europe.1 So begins an April 30, 1946, news release issued from the Brethren Relief Center, New Windsor, Maryland, recruiting cattle attendants, dubbed “seagoing cowboys,” to care for livestock being shipped to war-devastated countries. Many similar ads had been circulating throughout the country since the preceding summer in newspapers, farm journals, church publications, on radio, and by word of mouth. World War II had ended in 1945 – in Europe in May and in the Far East in August. Churches and governments alike had been planning what they could do when the war was finished to help war-devastated people get on their feet again. A unique church and government partnership, forged that summer of 1945, put sleepy, bucolic New Windsor, Maryland, into a hub of international activity. The seagoing cowboys, and heifers housed in barns of Brethren farmers, were the riders on that hub in and out of Carroll County. The world was their range – a world devastated by war but pregnant with possibilities. Heifer Project Meets UNRRA The Heifer Project was the idea of Dan West, a Church of the Brethren leader and peace advocate. In 1938, during a break in his relief work for the historic peace churches in the midst of the Spanish Civil War, West was haunted by the gaunt faces of mothers and starving children to whom he had been distributing reconstituted powdered milk.

  • Beyond Hunger: Communities of Change
    Beyond Hunger: Communities of Change In 2014, to mark its 70th birthday, Heifer International gathered a group of men known as the seagoing cowboys to honor their contributions and collect their memories for posterity. The narrative below, part of an article in a 2014 edition of World Ark magazine, gives some background and includes the story of one of them, Donald Struchen, as written by historian Peggy Reiff Miller. At the close of World War II, herds of young men and a few women crossed oceans with shipments of livestock for families whose livelihoods were obliterated during the fighting. We credit those seagoing cowboys with cementing the foundation of Heifer International, which grew into a global nonprofit that’s now 70 years strong. The all-expenses-paid trip overseas came with a number of caveats. The animals had to be fed and their stalls mucked multiple times a day. Seasickness was practically a given on the utilitarian ships that shuttled livestock and other aid to postwar countries. And there was no getting around it, the poignant stench from mounds of manure would be inescapable. For the young men eager to earn their credentials as seagoing cowboys, there was no waffling. This was a plum chance to do important work and sample a taste of freedom, all while setting out into the wider world for the first time. Teams of boys as young as 15 caught trains or hitched rides from heartland farming communities to the ocean ports where they would set sail. Those boys are in their 70s, 80s and 90s today, but their stories of adventures on board and ashore are as vibrant as ever.
