We said Goodbye to a Hero

With the heaviest of hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved Veteran Robert Carroll. Bob had been a House of Cornelius resident since May of 2021 and was loved by staff and residents. Bob served for 7 years in the Marines and had a heart of gold. His energy and sense of humor was enduring and he had a toothless smile that could light up a room.

Bob was homeless for some time prior to joining the FaithWorks family but found more than a home here with us. He found family. We were honored to walk along side Bob during his final days here on earth and know that we will reunite in Heaven.

Until then, Sir, rest easy.

In Loving Memory of

Robert Craig Carroll

2022 Volunteer and Donor Luncheon

In May, FaithWorks hosted a Volunteer & Donor Luncheon to thank our supporters and honor former Board Member Mike Evans. Mike has been a cornerstone to our programs since the beginning. A nice lunch was enjoyed by some of our most valuable players and clients had the chance to express gratitude for support received through FaithWorks. It was a lovely day!!!

Big shout out to Cattlemen's for hosting the luncheon. Service and food was great! Thank you! and Thank you to our Volunteers and Donors who keep the FaithWorks world spinning!

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ICONIC SERVICE!!!

A word from Mike....

"It has been my privilege to serve FaithWorks since 1998. I was fortunate to be part of the design committee and then its first Executive Director with a widely varied interfaith Board to assist in defining and carrying out the original mission.

....The higher volume of clients continues to succeed in making the transition to long term stability, proving the effectiveness of dedicated staff assisting and supporting them through the typical strife and setbacks to overcome barriers and difficulties in both life changing experiences as well as learning new ways of successful parenting, budgeting, responsibility, education, clean and sober living, and respect for allowing God to work in their lives. Just to witness this extreme degree of growth in people's life situations has been a miracle to behold.

FaithWorks has won the respect and admiration of our entire community. I am glad to have been part of it for the last 24 years."

Francis Court kiddos made surprises for Mothers Day!

Youth Advocate Kathy worked with each kiddo to create a perfect surprise for mothers this year! Each goodie was wrapped up in a custom made gift bag and delivered to the Francis Court moms.

FaithWorks was joyfully in attendance at the 2022 Project Homeless Connect, held at the Redding Library.

What a blessed day! Staff and volunteer (alumni) Mina spent the day loving on our local homeless community. We counted 38 visitors at our booth and handed out 33 hygiene kits, 29 feminine hygiene kits, 35 packages of socks, dog food, diapers, wipes, snacks and smiles! The best part is, we were able to pray with and for 21 people! The beautiful people we met, spoke to & prayed with reminded us what we fight for. We fight for all people to have access to housing and the compassionate support required to succeed.

It's official! Tickets are on sale!

A new partnership has formed with the local non-profit Carrying Heroes

FaithWorks staff was invited out to meet the rescue horses who serve heroes. Kelsi Halvarson, Founder and CEO showed us around and her kindness was contagious. She clearly has a passion for these majestic animals and the heroes that they carry. House of Cornelius Veteran Larry was the first to take advantage of our new partnership with Carrying Heroes! He was so excited to meet the horses and I think the feeling was mutual. His face lights up with the mention of the horses! We are currently looking for volunteers that can take the veterans up to the ranch.

For more information, call our office at (530) 242-1121.

Thank you Carrying Heroes
