One of my favorite expressions is "pray and move your feet."  It's a colorful way of saying "faith without works is dead" and also a perfect description of the work of our dear friends and Partners In Hope.

You see, every day, here at the City Rescue Mission, we meet men and women whose lives are at stake.  Some are at risk of succumbing to severe hunger and malnutrition.  Still more are endangered by the cold and violence that threaten their survival on the streets.

You and other Mission partners are the hands, feet, energy and action behind our every effort to rescue these downtrodden and disheartened souls.  First, we offer food and shelter to heal weary bodies and build strength for the road ahead.  Then we provide Christian guidance, education and recovery programs to help restore the lives Christ died for.

I'm truly grateful for your every act of volunteering . . . of sharing our mission with others . . . of coordinating food or clothing drives . . . of remembering the poor with financial gifts . . . and for your prayers on behalf of our staff, volunteers, donors, guests and all who are associated with the Mission.  Your prayers are powerful.  And it's your compassion for the poor and commitment to God's plan that give them their strength.

Thank you for standing beside us in every way possible.  You are truly a saving grace to those whose futures are at risk . . . and to the City Rescue Mission.

For His will and purpose,

Kevin
