Jesus Makes the Headlines!

The Living Water Rescue Mission was the top story in the York News-Times today!  An excellent article by Rachael Ruybalid, reporter for the YNT:

The women and family side of the mission is making great progress, and the supporters of LWRM are to be congratulated for their faithfulness and thanked profusely for their offerings!  The LORD is to be PRAISED for His goodness, His faithfulness, and His abundant provision!

"Is this not the fast I have chosen:

to loose the chains of injustice

and untie the cords of the yoke, 

to set the oppressed free

and break every yoke?

It is not to share your food with the hungry

and to provide the poor wanderer with shelter --

when you see the naked, to clothe him,

and not to turn away from your own flesh and blood?

Then your light will break forth like the dawn,

and your healing will quickly appear;

then your righteousness will go before you,

and the glory of the LORD will be your rear guard.

Then you will call, and the LORD will answer;

you will cry for help, and he will say: 

Here am I."

Isaiah 58:6-9a

Phase 1 & Phase 2 FULLY FUNDED!

See all those little squares filled in with blue and pink?  That's right -- the Extreme Mission Makeover is FULLY FUNDED!  Phase 1 has been fully funded for quite some time and the construction completed on that phase -- the men's side of the mission, the offices, food prep area, and other main parts of the building.  Phase 2 -- the women and family side -- is now fully funded, and construction has begun!  Construction of Phase 2 had to wait until it was fully funded so we can complete construction without any delays that would effect the rest of the mission, and we are excited and overjoyed to report that the funding is there and construction is underway!

We thank all our supporters out there who have given of their time, treasures, and talents to bring us to this point!  We praise God for His goodness, His providence, His guidance in everything to do with the mission -- may He be glorified!

Construction of this part of the building is just the beginning -- when the construction is complete, ministry begins!  That is when we get to help the hurting and the homeless in the name of Jesus Christ.  Praise God for allowing us to be a part of His work in this vital ministry, and for showing His glory in all of it!
