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.
