Our Story – Answering a Call
The concept of starting an organization to help people in need wasn't my own. It was a calling telling me to make a difference. For some time, I’d been reflecting on the Ten Commandments and feeling drawn to live out my faith more. While I did some good things for others, I felt it wasn’t enough and it made me feel lukewarm. I am not satisfied with lukewarm.
At first, I wasn’t sure what I was being called to do. And then the coronavirus pandemic hit the country fast and hard with an enormous economic impact. Suddenly, people who had great jobs no longer did. Two-income households became one-income households. Small businesses lost their firm footing in the marketplace and unemployment grew rapidly. I knew what I had to do.
You are invited to be a part of making a difference for people in need within Lincoln and the surrounding areas.
