Thank you for all of the support we received this year in our efforts to bring blessings to others. We met with a couple of additional agencies that needed help and I am proud to say that we were able to donate approximately 2000 lbs of food to both Isabeles House and The Least of These, both incredible causes.
If you can donate to these awesome causes, please follow their links below.
Step Into The Light & Emanuel Ministries of St. Louis, Missouri
The Summer of 2009, I was blessed with an opportunity to minister at a church in the inner city of St. Louis. My good friend and brother in Christ J.Reed of J. Reed Ministries took myself and Jim Coley of "Revealing the Light Within" to a couple of places that help rebuild peoples lives, spirits and their families. I was so impressed with the passion that these people have to make their lives better, that I felt impressed to do something to help. One of the ministries is called "Step into the Light" and is run by Pastor Jerome Braceley, and the other is Emanuel Ministries and it is run by Pastor Roberson.
I personally took a tour of these two inner city facilities and they are not all peaches and cherries. These Men and Women are separated, but for instance, the Mens units are cramped with multiple beds, very close to one another and they do not have the most comfortable accomodations that you and I get to enjoy daily. They Eat together, they pray together and they fight their addictions together.
As I worshipped that night with these men, God had laid this burden on my heart to help the cause. Rebuild a Person, rebuild thier family and rebuild thier life. I can not do this alone and most of the things I just mentioned, I have no control over, that is God's area. But what I can do, and what I do desire, is to make it a little bit easier on these people in their quest to become new.
My good friends Johnny Battista Recla and Jim Coley had expressed intrest in helping me with this cause and I am thankful for these two fine men. If you have the ability to help this mission this winter, We would be truly greatful.
