Dear God, thank you for loving me enough to send Your Son to save my life. Thank you for not turning away from me while I was yet a sinner even though You had every reason to be ashamed of me. Forgive me for the times when I was ashamed and scared to share my faith in You with others. Give me the boldness to share Your hope with others. In Jesus' name, amen.

WOW!!! Keller Williams Elevate of Carthage and Joplin outdid themselves with this huge donation for our residents. We’re blessed to be a recipient of your RED DAY activities.

Ours is not glamorous work. Recovery from addiction is hard work. Sustained recovery is even harder. Building a foundation after incarceration or homelessness is hard work. Sustaining it is even harder. Our victories are hard fought and may be small to many but to the people inside our walls, they’re HUGE. Thanks again for believing our work matters.

Today’s a perfect day for a parking lot sale! We’re pulling stuff out as I type. The sale will run from 10a - 5p each day until the weather tells us otherwise. As always, this sale is donation-based.

Thank you for your continued support both in donations and purchases at our thrift store.

Today’s your lucky day if you need a mattress!! We have free mattresses in all sizes (but don’t have an official count on how many of each). If you’re in need of one, come in the main entrance of the center and go left up the ramp to our kitchen for assistance (skeleton staff on the weekends💀!!). You may also come to the thrift store and we’ll get you help.

Reminder - these are used mattresses.

We are making changes! Rearranging the parking lot to allow more parking spaces and easier drop-off for our donors. Thank you M&M Wrecker Service of SWMO LLC. You make it look so easy.

“Let my perspiration be your inspiration!”. Wise words from Jamie, who manages our food service and dock. When he’s not in his kitchen cooking like a boss, he’s doing other things around the center to make us better. We’re blessed to have him. . .even if he perspires some. 😅😅😅
