Our ministry has been very active in making a hands on difference in an area of our city called Neville/Hawkins. We feed up to 150 people/week, provided schools supplies for kids, deliver groceries to families, tutor children, counsel families and recently started a mentoring program with 14 amazing kids.
The reality for us is that almost all of this has taken place in a park on Neville St. The weather is making it much more difficult to operate outside. To this end we found a home to purchase on the same street. We made an offer on the home and after some back and forth we settled on a price. Our offer was conditional on 4 things: 1) home inspection being completed (done) 2. Insurance in place ( will be done by today) 3. Zoning changed (in process) and 4. Proof of financing (need your help)
I started this ministry by faith and God has been faithful. We know that He uses people to accomplish His purposes and we know that this is one of His purposes. We are looking for people/families that would commit to monthly support over the next five years or to a one time gift. We already have two commitments so we are praying for many moremore before Friday when we reach our deadline.
If you may be interested in helping us out to deliver quality hands on ministry to those in need, please email me at boazlighthouse@gmail.com.
