10/22 – we welcomed her for the first time – she just wanted food

10/23 – she returned, expressed interest in knowing more about Jesus

10/28 – she returned, asking prayer for her boyfriend and kids

11/4 – she returned, asking for prayer “just to make it today”

11/5 – she returned, asking for shirts, socks, and food

11/7 – she returned, and decided to become a follower of Jesus Christ!

That’s 6 interactions with us!

Because she was here on a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, she interacted at least once with most of our volunteers (who are from 8 Christian organizations).

Her 17-day journey is summed up so powerfully from the notes on her prayer cards . . . from “just food” on 10/22 to “accepted Jesus” on 11/7.

She is why.

She is why God sent His Son Jesus Christ.

She is why Community Life exists.

She is why we are partnering together to love our unsheltered neighbors.

She is why we go out on the streets and invite people to 2390 Military Tr..

She is why we pray and wait expectantly for God to bring people to 2390 Military Tr..

She is why.
