It's hard not to get caught up in the Sleep Out/holiday pace that permeates this place right now. But every day there are graced interruptions - reminders of why the effort, why the pace, why the joy that fills us.
 
There are wonderful stories of hope rekindled by the love and faithfulness of this amazing community. We see them, we hear them...but you make them happen.
 
A stable place to call home; a child thriving in child care. "I got the job!" "This was our best Thanksgiving ever." "The chance to put my child's dearest wishes on a Christmas list some caring person I don't even know wants to fill..."
 
We're halfway to our Sleep Out goal and marching on toward our holiday gift card collection goal. Your help in getting us all the way home is appreciated more than we can say.
 
Joy to the world, indeed.
