Our Start

Our journey began with three families wanting to glorify God by helping to make a difference in the lives of many in our community.  The summer of 2023 we were all living in the same house .  The school that us three moms worked at and all our children attended gave us a house to live in rent free as we all needed a place to live for all different reasons.  One night we sat together talking. The topic was "How could we help others to spread God's love?". He had done so much for all of us. We wanted others to experience God's love as we did.  We felt as if this house that was provided to us from God was our refuge. As it says in Psalms 91," God is my refuge and my fortress under his wings I will find shelter". While we were living in this great house that housed four adults, nine children, five cats, two dogs, and four birds while so many other people were out on the streets,  we realized how blessed we were and wanted to spread God's love to others.  One Sunday we went out for a drive with some blessing bags we made and started keeping our eyes open for people that looked like they could use some help.  As we handed out the bags we started meeting people and listening to their stories.  We spoke to a lot of people who were experiencing homelessness.  They took the time to answer our questions and gave us a lot of information that would be put to use in the very near future.  We started researching the need in the community.  The question was, "were we one of many people helping, was our help needed, and where are these resources located?". We volunteered at places like Grace Way Village and the Treasure Coast food bank to educate ourselves and see how they operate.  How they help so many.  We discovered that there is a great need for help even with all these other organizations.  We also discovered that Saint Lucie/Okeechobee Counties do not have enough resources for the amount of people needing help.  Currently with the help of many others and donations we go out into the community and serve hot meals weekly.  We bring boxes of groceries to those who can not get to the food banks on their own or just don't know about the resources that Saint Lucie county does have to help.  We will help with one box of food and educate them on the resources that are available to help them in the future.  We currently accept seasonal clothing to help us supply the people we meet out there with what they need along with all food items to continue to help us create healthy meals for those living on the streets.
