He's Home! A LONG Trip!

had asked Dave if he had made it home?

I just got the text.

"Yes"

This is an exciting time for Dave! He is back in his home town for the first time in years!

I met Dave just over a year ago. He had been living at Freedom house up until the time they shut it down.

He then moved into Caritas, the homeless shelter.

After that he began living in his car.

When the car broke down he had no where to go.

He had been through most of the shelters in town.

I was concerned that he wouldn't make it on the streets.

Not everyone can survive in the harsh reality of the concrete and asphalt world.

Dave was able to get into Good Samaritan Ministries.

He has spent the last eight months there.

Last week he left there and headed to another shelter in hopes of buying some time.

He had prepurchased a bus ticket home. 

The ticket wasn't eligible to be redeemed for a couple of days.

Now that day has come and he's home! 

I pray that he can find the help he needs. He has some old friends there.

I pray that they will surround him with love.

Dave I wish you all the best!
