Meals at the Mission!

What an incredible blessing the members of Curves have been to our community! While working off the pounds, they have blessed homeless and hungry people in need with thousands of pounds of food the past few years. Each year, their food drive brings in hundreds and sometimes thousands of pounds of food. These are made into delicious meals and food boxes for needy people in our community! Many kids are helped!

Thank you, members of Curves!

For the happy in heart, life is a continual feast! Prov. 15:15(b).

May you enjoy a blessed, happy life.

A BLESSED DAY!

So much has happened at the Rescue Mission since I last posted on Current News! We had an outpouring of help on Christmas. It was overwhelmingly wonderful. Thank you! The volunteers had a great time too and their smiles brought joy to many people including us who get to help all the time. Thank you! The Christmas Toy Give-Away was also a great success! We had enough gifts and stuffed animals. Despite the snowy day, volunteers came to help. Some were snowed in, but others came just because we called and they wanted to help. Thank you! 415 people received Christmas presents. There were gifts for the mom's, dad's and of course, all the children. Look forward in a couple of weeks of seeing some great videos from these Christmas events.

For now, I want to show you a video from Feb. 8th, a special day. Feed the Children partnered with us to help distribute food, hygiene and Avon boxes full of needed and special items to needy families in our communities. We helped hundreds of people we knew were in need from the Clothing Room, the Rescue Mission and from local schools, and the Community of Hope. Hope you enjoy the video! THANK YOU TO ALL THE STAFF AT LAS CRUCES GOSPEL RESCUE MISSION AND VOLUNTEERS WHO MADE SO MANY SPECIAL DAYS FOR PEOPLE IN NEED OF HOPE!

Jesus is Alive! Happy Easter!

HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE! If you were blessed to be able to wake up early this morning and enjoy the sunrise, it was amazing. If you weren't, here is a picture. Each Easter reminds us that God is real and alive. He is risen! As a song says, "He touched me, and oh the joy that floods my soul. Something happened and now I know, He touched me and made me whole." May the risen Saviour touch you today and bring healing, hope, forgiveness and new life. Happy Easter.
