I can hardly imagine anything more challenging than spending Christmas homeless and alone. Every year I am overwhelmed when I see all the kids who call Gospel Rescue Mission home during the holidays.

Imagine the anxiety a person might feel if they don’t know where their family’s next meal is coming from. Unfortunately, this is a harsh reality for many in our community.

You helped provide a SAFE HAVEN from the heat for Robert. Ask Robert to share his life story, and he can capture it in four devastating words: “I should be dead.”

Picture a schoolroom. A student named Stephanie. She’s eagerly learning, growing. Working hard.

I doubt you’ve ever seen a 9-year-old drinking alcohol and partying. But that’s the harsh world Adan was born into.
