Good morning!!!
We hope that everyone had a great weekend this past Memorial Weekend!! It is so important to honor our veterans. Did you know that about 40% of the men that come through the Men's Center of the Union Rescue Mission are veterans? To quote Aaron Reddin, the Director of Men's Ministries for the Union Rescue Mission, "of the MANY homeless men that we see come through the doors of the Union Rescue Mission, over 40% of them are of a veteran status. That is an insanely high number of people that have no place to call home, who once called a US military base “home”. (Please feel free to check out more about this at here!)
I would love to let everyone know about some current needs we have at the Dorcas House! Right now we are completely out of paper towels! We also really need bath towels, tall kitchen trash bags, laundry baskets, and alarm clocks. These are all items that you can bring directly to the Dorcas House. If you have any questions feel free to contact Michelle Carney at 374-4022 or by email at michelle@urmission.org.
Some fun events we have coming at the Dorcas House are:
*Tomorrow we are going to be so blessed to have a group called Overflow come and perform a puppet show. They will do some other fun things during this show as well. They will be presenting a gospel message so please be praying for the hearts of our women and especially our children here at the Dorcas House to be open to the message of salvation and hope!!
*Graduation is on June 2nd! The Women's Ministry at Little Rock's First Baptist Church is hosting this graduation! We are very excited to have 5 of our ladies graduating our pr
ogram!We are looking forward to each of these events!!
