| What a great present ! Darnell had been
to CityTeam before. It was a place he could go to
church and feel comfortable …accepted ...not
looked down upon for his drug habit.
Hungry and alone, he found his way back to the familiar
place on Washington Street, where he knew he could
find a meal, shelter and some encouragement.
One of the mission staff took the time to talk to
Darnell, allowing him the dignity to be able to tell
his story and share his troubles with someone who
cared. He was impressed by the genuineness of the
people at the mission, and saw for himself how the
people cared for people in crisis… people like
him. Darnell applied and was accepted onto the recovery
program, and has made great strides toward turning
his life around. He has reconciled with his family,
and is enjoying an old family tradition once again
- producing gospel music with his brothers. Isn't
God good!
