“So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God” (Ephesians 2:19).
Recently one of our residents of the Christian Care Center’s Men’s Residence celebrated his 50th birthday! We were blessed when his sister came to the center bringing homemade brownies and balloons to celebrate! As we sang to him and enjoyed the little celebration, he was able to feel the love of God.
It’s tough for our residents to be away from their loved ones during holidays and birthdays, so it was a blessing to see him have family to celebrate with. It is so great for these men to have their family support them during this time in their life.
Unfortunately, not every resident has family to celebrate with. Some are from out of state, some have no family, and some have burnt those bridges but are praying and waiting for God’s restoration in those relationships.
BUT GOD….
Here at the Men’s Residence, He creates a family for every man here. We might not always have blood relatives to support our residents, but we never fall short of support from the family that God has created in this community!
If you would like to be a part of this celebration of family here at the Men’s Residence by becoming a prayer partner, financial donor, or volunteer, please email me Jamie@christiancarecenter.org
We are also always open for donations of brownies… anytime!
