I like it when these guys let me know how they are doing. Walter went on to say he has managed keeping a roof over his head ever since.

Greg is the house man at The Refuge. Tomorrow is his two year anniversary since coming to JBM. He started off coming to our ministry only having become sober two weeks prior and was homeless. He has stayed sober and drug free for two years, and has learned responsibility to the point he is entrusted with the position he is currently in. We honor Greg for his achievements while here, and the way he has stuck with it. Happy 2 year anniversary Greg! We love seeking first God's Kingdom with you!

THINGS WE ALWAYS NEED:
1. Our community to believe in us and partner with us. Many people, businesses, and Churches. Prayer is something and valued deeply.
2. Guys to help who want God's help.
3. We do lawn care, pressure washing, about to start resurfacing parking lots with the Discipleship guys we rarely use the homeless in this work. We need jobs. We have many references from great upstanding residents.
4. Items of hygiene that keeps bodies and houses clean.
5. We are constructive and agricultural some. We can use tractors and all equipment and small hand tools.
A passenger van would be great as well.
6. Looking for a Campus with some land and a multipurpose building(Church). We have a lead on a big modular but it will take a nice piece of land to put it on.
7. We use foodbank some. Donations of money goes far there.
8. We have a trained staff with years of experience laying their lives down with little pay. What we have done proves that it's not only about money. But it would be nice to feel more comfort financially. We have started at the bottom and haven't used manipulation or sympathy. We have put work in. Many want the money but they never build quality leaders.
I want this to grow so we can keep this in this region. Many places doesn't have the experience we have in helping with such acute problems. I've seen many become leaders in society that come from the mirey pit. Myself included.

Several guys came through got a job, got some Jesus and moved on. Now we got a new crew and they got jobs very quick. I believe Jesus will become very real in their lives.
