Want to more know more about us? Share

Come spend an informal hour touring our new facility and listen to us share “who” we are, “what” we do and “how” you can help! We are offering this time twice a month to fit your busy schedule.

These events are specifically designed for our donors, volunteers or those who want more information about our ministry. We will share with you our vision, our mission and our needs while answering your questions.

 

 

Everyday you wake up and have choices to make. You can choose what you wear, what you eat, or what route you take to work. You can chose to be a positive, productive person or you can choose to be destructive. The homeless make that same decision as well, and we know some that choose to be productive.

Diana woke up this morning at the local homeless shelter, rolled up her mat, stood in line for a shower, and waited in line for breakfast with hundreds of others. Then she made the choice not to go get high and forget the hurts that bind her; she decided to come serve with us.

Diana, along with several others, come into the OurCalling building during the week and clean floors, sort donations, fold clothes, and sit and pray with others. These tasks need to be done, but cannot get done by staff alone. We have started a program where the homeless community can come serve along side us while earning the opportunity to use the shower and laundry room.

OurCalling has been blessed with a building that contains a shower facility and a washer and dryer. It is our honor to share these with our brothers and sisters. They make a choice spend their time serving with us and we get the privilege to share these blessings with them.

But I am not sure how much more our life’s can take because we are separated the only thing that hold us together is because we strongly in God and his Son Jesus Christ don’t me because we do love each other.
