Hello Everyone: As we headed downtown tonight we saw a friend of ours laying against a parking meter and a couple trying to help him. When we pulled over to help this couple said they were driving by and saw him collapse, and our friend was pretty banged up and a lot of blood. I think the couple was thankful someone who knew our friend showed up to help them know what to do. They wanted to take him to the hospital, but our friend didn't want to go as his injuries were not bad enough. So we got some bandages (a lot of bandaids) and got him fixed up. This couple offered to take him to his hotel and our friend accepted the offer. What is so amazing is that this couple STOPPED and offered help.

Hello Everyone, It was hot tonight but still thankful to see everyone! Thank you to Hallmark Mortgage for bringing sliders, chips, bananas, drinks for everyone. Tracy White, Rhonda Powell you two are so appreciated and everyone at your business!! Tonight we asked everyone to state one good quality about themselves. We heard things like, knowing how to keep my mouth shut, being a hard worker, being kind, good listener. We talked about how easy it is to only hear the negative about ourselves. Being reminded of our bad choices in the past....the good can easily get drowned out. Hopefully hearing ourselves say one good quality will remind us we do have good in us. The need for for socks and shoe

Hello Everyone This is a very late update and for that I apologize--things seems to get so busy at times. Last Friday was a good night and the thing that seemed to stick out the most was a friend who shared his heart. He said he used to smoke at least a carton of cigarettes a week and asked God to help take it away and now he's down to 2 cigarettes a day!! As we stood together to pray he looked at me and said with his eyes welling up "It's about faith" and then said he was instantly full of the goosebumps. His request was that he is able to fully quit and for that we prayed as well. He really summed it all up with those 3 words. A person a can do anything with their faith leading them and it

Hi Everyone, Blessed Portion Friday Night 6-5-2020 Hello Everyone: Thank you Amber Gaskill for making such a hearty meal of corn, green beans, sausage, potatoes and fresh strawberries for dessert! We had just enough for everyone including several to go's for a young man and his family. Being downtown this Friday was more peaceful than the previous week and for that we are thankful. We still have a long way to go in our country, but it was good to see some of the chaos being put to the side. The song with this post is being sung by a young man who came with one of our volunteers Maria Christina Aldrete and he such is a fine young man. We happen to hear him singing a little and asked if he

Hi Everyone, The weather started out perfect for getting together, connecting with friends and sharing a meal. I always look forward to seeing familiar faces and chatting about life with them and then, also, meeting new friends and hearing their stories. Blessed Portion Provided plenty of pizzas, chips, cookies, fresh fruit and water. (Thanks to all that donate to this ministry)!! After we ate we passed out items to those who needed things and then we gathered for prayer and, as we did that, we could hear the sirens continue to make their way downtown...just blocks from us. We stood together (all of us, from all walks of life) in a circle and Gina reminded us that our God is a loving and car
