Bayside Homeless Outreach Review

Lost in the grip of addiction, loneliness, poverty and misery. A life being destroyed, wasting away on the streets. What can make up for the years taken away, a mother’s sadness and a father’s despair?

There is hope in Jesus for another life and another world.

“I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten...” Joel 2:25

“Bring a child up in the way she should go, and when she is older she will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:6 =

Nancy de Glymes and Christi with mouse ears. All those hotel soaps add up.

A jacket, a sleeping bag, a new pair of shoes…thanks guys. Our throwouts, somebody else’s joy.

Touching a life with prayer in the cold white sunlight of morning.

Somebody’s day just got better.

One of our tents, one of Derek’s backpacks full of supplies,

Derek puts a specially written card in each one.

These girls work hard picking up all the trash. “God will bless you in all your work and in everything you put your hand to.” Deuteronomy 15:10

Finding God, opening up the Bible for the first time.

A place to shelter, the street we minister on.

A dog has to keep warm somehow.

“Every new day he does not fail,” Zephaniah 3:5.

“And Jesus said to them, ‘I am the bread of life.’” John 6:35.
