We celebrated our annual Easter Feast last week, and our community members in need enjoyed a traditional Easter dinner—including ham, mashed potatoes, fresh vegetables, rolls, and dessert—prepared by men in the 12-month Residential Treatment Program and served by caring volunteers. It was a joyful occasion and an opportunity for guests to feel loved and valued. We know from experience that these are special times when people can have a turning point and receive hope for a new life. We are grateful to our donors who made this event possible.
