Jesus tells us that “in this life, you will have trouble.” When circumstances prove this statement to be true, we respond with trust, resilience, and courage. God calls us to trust His good and perfect will and look for opportunities to further His kingdom in the midst of obstacles.

At that time, they will need teams of volunteers to serve shifts at the center. We should be hearing back from them in the next few days.
The supplies we are collecting will be transported to the LA Dream Center. They have already housed over a 100 people and have served several thousand people with drive up distributions.
