At our church on Tuesday night, many people came to the first gathering of the Family Promise in 2023. It was raining all day, but rain did not stop our meeting. They all shared their passion for the mission for the homeless families.
They have only two staffs to serve many thousands homeless families in the San Joaquin County. That is why all the church pastors and volunteers step up to support them. Our church is a big part of this mission. Rev. Dave Bennett is the chairperson of the board. Many of our church members support this mission with time, talent, and treasure. I had the joy of meeting 30-40 other pastors in this area who came to support this mission. It takes the whole community to help others.
