Mike joined our team in 2015 and has been an invaluable member since. In addition to being on the Board of Directors and our Treasurer, Mike leads the Special Request Program. He manages the budget for this program. He also manages the outreach supply tracking database, which tracks all items distributed to each homeless friend that places an order.


Most of what Mike assists with is on the backside and most volunteers do not see him. However, we honor him and are very thankful for his gift of talents. 


Thank you, Mike!

Carl began volunteering monthly in late 2015 with Shiloh Church from Flower Mound. In 2019, Carl began attending Tuesday night outreaches weekly and has been a vital part of our team since. Carl assisted Jayson, Heather and Anabela during Covid (March to Sept. 2020) multiple times a week, through camp deliveries. Since we could not gather groups, we delivered to hundreds of homeless friends – right to their doorstep (aka – their campsites).


In addition, Carl joined our Board of Directors in 2023. And he helps oversee the organization of our clothing donations at our warehouse. He is a jack of all trades and assists with most all outreach and ministry needs.


In addition to Tuesday nights, Carl volunteers Mondays to help lead camp or home visits, helps oversee inventory and orders for our SR Program, volunteers most Thursdays, and assists with transportation for our homeless friends. 


Thank you, Carl!

Happily, and willingly! 


There will never be another Jayson, and we are beyond grateful that him!!


Heather met him in 2008 and they became friends. Together they served at a local homeless church. Then dabbled in other outreaches. Then when Heather felt called to begin this street team, he said, “I’m in!” and there has been no turning back since. 


Thank you, Jayson!!

This consists of packing boxes of food for our weekly home deliveries, packing food boxes for our Monday camp deliveries, and sorting weekly food donations from Winco, corporate and private donors. 


In addition, they have become our weekly shopping team and pickup all needed food or supply needs. 


And last but definitely not least, they have been blessing us with meeting donors at the office/warehouse when other team members cannot.


They are active in our community in other ways. Simply put, they are givers and they have such joy in serving as well. We are very grateful for all they do behind the scenes!


Thank you, Bill & Loree!

For years, he has graciously supplied fresh fruit weekly to over 300 homeless friends. 


He also serves on the Board of Directors.


In addition, beginning in 2022, Brett and his wife, Kim, come to the office one week a month to pack for outreach.  And any time he isn’t working, and we are moving someone in, he assists with that as well.  He also networks for us finding furniture and household goods based on our needs. Like many of our core team volunteers, he loves to serve those the Lord puts before us and aids us in whatever he can around his work and family schedule.


Thank you, Brett!

Dana began serving and joined our team in late 2021. She is a goofball and enjoys making everyone laugh. She has a wonderful way of letting our friends know they are missed. Running from the truck to someone’s tent, shouting their name, to give them a big hug is a memory we won’t forget. That friend wept feeling so wanted. 

  

In addition to coming out weekly to serve on Tuesday nights, Dana volunteers Mondays to help lead camp or home visits, helps pack van supplies for outreach, assists with transportation for our homeless friends, conducts family assessments at our office every Thursday, and helps with housing and outreach case management.

Jennifer began serving and joined our team in late 2020. She comes across as quiet but is one of the first that you'll find sitting on the sidewalk, curb or in the street with a struggling friend. She has also become sought after by our friends to make them cakes or cupcakes for their birthday and taken birthday celebrations on the streets to another level. We are blessed by her giving heart. 


In addition to coming out weekly to serve on Tuesday nights, Jennifer helps pack van supplies for outreach, sorts donations at the office, helps with transportation assistance for our homeless friends, and outreach case management.

Mr. Mack has a passion for God, to help build a relationship with Him, and in prayer. 


He implemented our Prayer Table during Tuesday Night Outreach, and we are so thankful for this!  


We do not push preaching or prayer onto anyone. We let everyone know that we Love God and we are happy to pray with or to share testimonies when asked. However, opening a prayer table has been so wonderful allowing a safe space our friends can go to. They can ask Mr. Mack right then and there to pray with or over them, or they can use a prayer request card to be more private. For those who choose the card route, we have a locked prayer request box on the table. We then pray as a team over them.


Thank you, Mr. Mack!!
