God Restores

Friday, October 30th, 2009

Friday Night

All the girls from our group went over to the women’s side of Sienna Francis House to sing and pray with the ladies. One woman came up to us and told us that she couldn’t sing because she had lost her voice. We prayed over her for God to restore her voice and when we were done she could talk clearly and sing!

Helping a Mom Provide

Friday, October 16th, 2009

Friday Night

A mother and her son came to the Sienna Francis House while we were there with the Angel’s on Wheels and we helped her find a trash bag full of clothes for her son. He got new boots and so many clothes. I felt like I had helped make a difference and I thank Urban Plunge for allowing me to do that!

Where to Go

Wednesday, July 22nd, 2009

Friday Evening

At the Siena Francis House, I met a man who had just gotten out of jail that morning. Even though he had family in town, he didn’t have a place to stay that night. It just deeply affected me in that there was no place for him to transition. I feel like I need to do something to fix that.

Value

Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009

Friday Evening

Meeting with the homeless at Angels on Wheels was definitely out of my comfort zone. But talking with Gabe, my eyes were opened to the desperation of his circumstances. He shared his story with us and I could see that he just wanted someone to listen. Giving him that time made him feel valued, and it opened my eyes to the reality of homelessness.

A Million Dollars

Wednesday, May 13th, 2009

Friday Evening

At Angles on Wheels, we went to the Jackson Tower to hand out flowers to mothers for Mother’s Day. It amazed me how happy a simple rose made them and how they craved touch. When we would pray, they would grab my hand and just hold on for dear life. Then they would hug me and thank me like I gave them a million dollars or something. It was really interesting.

Please Pray

Friday Evening

At Angels on Wheels I encountered a gentleman that was struggling with alcoholism. I offered to pray with or for him and he responded with the most genuine “Please pray for me.” It truly touched me.

Praying to You

Thursday, April 9th, 2009

Friday Evening

When we were at Angels on Wheels, praying at the very end, I felt that when we prayed we were praying to someone next to us and very close and not far away. That’s only happened once before in my life.

God’s Hands

Tuesday, April 7th, 2009

Friday Evening

The Angels on Wheels really impacted me because I saw how those people of God were suffering and how bad they felt. I realized that so many people have less than half of what I have. That they really need to be prayed for and touched through God’s hands.

Open Up My Eyes

Thursday, February 12th, 2009

Friday Evening

Seeing the homeless and talking to them about life really showed me how it can happen to anyone and they are just like us. It just showed me how much we take all the little things in life for granted.
