Recently, we asked for a gently used tent for one of our unhoused neighbors. Stuart Bogue met Julian while distributing Street Eats bags and approached us with his need for a tent. We received one almost immediately and Stuart was able to deliver it.
“I finally saw the young gentleman last night and he was so excited to receive the tent! Julian told me that it was his 27th birthday and he felt like he was getting a present. He was all smiles when I pulled the tent from my car. I know it meant the world to him. Please let the person know who donated the tent how much he liked it, and that it was going to help him get a peaceful night’s sleep for his birthday.” ~Stuart
Thank you to Stuart, to our tent benefactor, and to those who assemble and distribute Street Eats bags. YOU are the hands and feet of Christ serving our community!
