A hot summer day in tent city.... Sumter S.C.




Jason in Tent City today

This week some folks in Columbia  found a Homeless Man in his tent. He had died in his sleep. While we are not sure of the cause of death in this case it came to our minds that it has been very hot this summer and that our friends that were living out side were in some jeopardy in this extreme heat. So today we spent some time in tent city and around town being sure everyone was ok.  As soon as Jimmy saw us he said.."Wow you guys are a God send".and he was right. I am sure that God had sent us to them. As it were there were some needs that existed in then city. God has blessed us to be able to help..So we did. 
As we went along I became aware that there seemed to be more folks out there on the streets than I had noticed before. The need is greater as every day passes.  As we go and serve the word of God in word and deed, our request is that you would consider those folks around you and their need. We would also ask that you consider adding this ministry to your daily prayer list.  We desire your prayers. Please take a moment this week and look around you. Is someone close to you in need?  Are you blessed to be a blessing ??
