Many people contribute to the success of Helping Up Mission’s program – including homeless addicts in the program.
Example: Today a program member presented a written case statement advocating for the expansion of the sports program. He discussed the health benefits (physical and psychological) as well as developing team building skills.
But, the point I really like was his observation that none of the team members during softball season dropped out of the Spiritual Recovery Program. Sports help men in the program stay longer!
He had a plan to expand the sports program so more men would stay in our Spiritual Recovery Program longer.
A program member saw a need. To him, the need presented an opportunity to help others and himself. He brought commitment to his passion. I have the feeling the sports program will be expanded!
Sincerely,
Bob Gehman
