Men's Graduation 8/25/09

Last night we were able to graduate 4 men from our drug/alcohol recovery program. The dinner and ceremony were hosted by Otter Creek Assembly of God. The Union Rescue Mission's Executive Director, Dr. William Tollett, brought a message about being committed to finishing and finishing strong!

Here is a shot of graduate Thomas Morrison giving testimony to the work God has done in his life over the last nine months! Congrats men!!

3,821 Rolls of Toilet Paper!!!

I have so much faith in young people. If you give kids a vision for how they can make serious impacts on a worthy cause, they don’t play around. If teenagers know that they can personally do something BIG that’s going to affect the lives of others, they go to work. They do their part bigger than you and I do. They do it with excellence, and they take pride in it!

Don’t believe me? Take a look at what happened when one local youth pastor encouraged kids through his Facebook status to bring toilet paper for the Union Rescue Mission to church camp with them.

If you want something done right, get young people involved. 3,821 rolls of TP.

Summer Serving

Summer is here and it is hot, hot, hot at the Dorcas House. All the children are out for school and some days it feels like pure mayhem! However, one of the really fun things about summer is that we get a lot more teenage groups of volunteers who are also on summer break and willing to pour their time and energy out on the "least of these" just out of sheer devotion to Jesus. So there they are outside my office door, patiently taping off the woodwork in the hall so they can paint yet again. They have already painted walls and murals in the Daycare, upstairs dorms, and cleaned almost every reachable part of the House. They have also brought in supplies that we desperately needed. They've spent hours entertaining children who need to be told again and again in subtle ways that they are safe and loved. They have helped repair the House, but more importantly they have helped repair the souls of the population dearest to the heart of God, the widows and orphans, the poor, the outcasts. Not once this week have I heard them complain or bicker. How strange they must seem to the youth around them who are spending their summer thinking only of themselves! But we can give our lives away when it is done out of gratitude and devotion to the One who gave His life away for us! I think they should all have t-shirts that proclaim, "I am lovesick" Proverbs 5:8

H2 - h0meless Water Outreach Snapshot!!

This past Friday I was able to get a little snapshot created of what it’s like when we hit the streets with cold water. Our cargo van has gone to be with Jesus, so Antioch Missionary Baptist stepped in and helped us get out there. If you are interested in helping out with this amazing outreach opportunity, please contact me! Enjoy!
