President's Update
The Message of Easter: We Are Eternal
The premise of Easter is the foundation of our Mission. It’s something even the poorest, most broken or addicted of our guests know deep in their hearts: We are more than these bodies we wear. We are eternal!
No matter how far a man or woman on the streets may have fallen, they have a deep inner sense that “life is more than this.”
Each person is a creation of God, made in His image, no matter how broken their bodies are from poverty, addiction or abuse, or how weary they are of struggling for a meal, a bed, a job or another day of survival.
As a friend of the Mission, you know this. The poor and broken in spirit matter to God, and to our common humanity. When you send your donation, or hand out a meal ticket, you provide so much more than a warm Easter dinner. It is an invitation for a second chance and an opportunity for new life.
This is the story of transformation happening here every day in the restored lives of the men, women and families you help us serve.
As you gather with your families this Easter, I pray you’ll continue to help provide food and care to those coming here, so our Mission can tell this Easter story of renewal all year long.
God bless you,
Ed Morgan, President
