The community

These past few weeks have been extremely exciting for us, as the people of the community have started to take notice of what 'good' our Ministry has on the area and the positive impact we are making.

To my knowledge, tonight went really well from all aspects of the Ministry. There were a few people who opened up with me and allowed prayer. There was plenty of food for everyone to enjoy the feast. Blankets were distributed accordingly to those in need. The clothing area has been very organized since being given over to Danna to oversee. (That has been a very big blessing for Amanda and I to let go of!)

One of our guests/friends was back at the beach, after a long period in the hospital for open heart surgery. Sadly enough, Paul is unable to find a shelter at the time, which I can only imagine to put him in a higher risk due to his health. I ask that the readers, please remember him in your prayers.

The Ministry is growing before our very eyes! We will soon need to invest in another table or two and also another freezer for the food donations that have been coming in. GOD is doing something really awesome and I'm excited to see what He's going to be doing in the near future. Our volunteer base seems to be growing as well. I think that tonight we had close to 15 people or so.
