This picture is me and one of my homeless friends. We get together each week and share how difficult our week has been and he always wins. Most would think it could not get any worse on the street, but it has. Another friend, Wayne, was really discouraged this week. He is homeless but looks decent and does work. But unfortunately he can’t make enough to get any type of housing. But lately, he told us that it was getting worse on the street. The day labor has not been available as in the past and he has even had a hard time selling his plasma for money. It is hard to make an honest living on the street.
A couple of weeks ago, someone gave Wayne a really nice flashlight. The only problem was they did not give him the 6 C cell batteries to make it operate. When he showed up last Tuesday, he had accumulated 4 batteries during the week but still could not use the flash light. Paul went to the store to purchase the remaining two batteries. When you are sleeping outside a good flashlight is a must.
Paul finished the study of Romans this week. He started this book over 2 years ago and it has impacted the lives of many that have attended during this time. Last Tuesday, he covered the benediction in Romans in verses 16:25-27. In these verses the Apostle Paul is saying bye to everyone in a way that only the Apostle could. He emphasized that Christ is the only one who can establish us according to the gospel. The Apostle Paul starts and finishes Romans with Christ.
After most had left, many of the musicians stayed around and enjoyed a jam session. We are grateful for their participation each week
