“Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? When did we see you sick, or in prison and go to visit you?" The King will reply,"I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me." - Matthew 25:37-40 |

Pete Rounsaville Pete Rounsaville came to the Grace House in August, 2016 after being referred by the United Way’s Home for Good program. Pete grew up in a loving, happy home, mainly at Ft Benning since his father was in the Army. After his divorce, he lost the zest in his life. He bounced around for years between his family and some friends. Ultimately, he ended up homeless. Through it all, he never stopped working for Publix. The only consistent thing in his life was his job. He has been a loyal employee for 14 years. Since moving into Grace House he has strengthened his walk with the Lord, found his confidence and seen his self-esteem rebound. Additionally, he has reestablished contact with his daughter, his parents and has made new friends. His lifestyle changes include a closer walk with God, stronger faith in himself, He is no longer living in his car and found a new appreciation for the simple things in life. "The simple things in life that you take for granted; bed, showers, a home of your own, mean more to you than you ever thought they would, when you no longer have them. The Grace House has helped me see that I deserve my own too! And it really feels good!!!!!!" |
Paul and Deaufort Paul and Deaufort lead our Reading Improvement program in the jail. They come every Monday and Wednesday morning to teach men how to read better. Some of the men are illiterate and some can read well. New vocabulary words, ever more challenging reading levels and their loving approach has men in the jail excited about reading. Most of the men ask to be able to read the Bible and Paul and Deaufort have several versions, depending on reading level, they use. We have men reading and understanding the Bible and able to write letters home and read letters they receive. Reading opens new vistas into God’s big world. Thanks to Paul and Deaufort for opening new doors for men in jail. |
Miranda McLemore Miranda joined the team in June as our Case Manager for the Homeless. She hit the ground running. She has already found permanent housing for several hard to place folks. We are excited about this new project we have started. Miranda meets with those about ready to move out and helps make the transition smooth. She maintains contact with them after they get housed to encourage and support them until they become sustainable. One of our clients came to us two years ago from the riverwalk. Due to health issues we couldn’t find suitable housing for her. Miranda worked with Thea and they put a plan together and today Christine is permanently housed and getting the care she needs. What a mighty God we serve!!!!! Her efforts mean homeless men and women will find housing and have a better chance of staying housed. We are blessed to have her onboard. Welcome to the TEAM Miranda!!!!!!
