February 12th Outreach: John... Streets of Hamilton or Streets of Heaven
Many lives were touched on February 12th. In particular a man named John. John walks the streets of Hamilton and he is in search of many things, one being God.
John is a highly intellectual man... he told us he has three completed thesis... and talking to him, it shows the intelligence he has. Unfortunately, in times of depression and loss towards life, John turns to alcohol and drugs. John stated that he didn't know why, but he does.
We prayed for John and he fell to his knees. We talked to him about salvation. We left with him knowing that 6 people that prayed, also care for him, but more importantly there is a God that cares about him as well.
We will continue to pray for John, and God willing, hope to see him again, either on the streets of Hamilton to talk more, or the streets of Heaven to rejoice.

January 15th Outreach
What a cold day it was! But that made me appreciate what God has provide to my family... a home with a roof and heat. The homeless of Hamilton have much, much less, and through the giving of blankets, clothing, hats, mitts, sandwiches, and coffee, we hope that this provide some warmth from the cold weather.
Our friends had the opportunity to chat with some of the homeless. Dale, a man in his 50's has been on the street for quite a long time. He has only a few teeth in his mouth, and he wears surgical latex gloves to cover the infections on his hands caused by frostbite. Before meeting the group, I drove past 5 homeless folks (4 men and 1 woman) and pulled over. I was able to provide them with hats, gloves, socks, and even new underwear. From contributions at my office, I had a suitcase full of womens' sweaters, pants, and jackets. The homeless lady was staying at the local Y and took all the womens' clothes to provide to those staying with her.
Thanks to all the provided in giving!

Extreme cold alert!
"During the next 24 hours we should be dressing for windchills of -15 C to -25 C across the GTA. That's the result of the combination of the cold arctic air and the gusty northwest wind."
Pray for the homeless tonight to seek warm shelter.
