Some Extras:

• Life on Wheels ministry wants to be without offence in the community, so we do regular garbage pick up from the bin to the stop signs in both directions along the railroad tracks and the road. We keep our area clean and tidy and discourage all tenting and junk accumulation from the homeless.
• In the past two Christmas seasons we prepared and handed out over 100 gift bags. We also gave out free pizza dinners; McDonald certificates for $10, and many food vouchers for $25 and $50, which were all donated. The people feel so loved, cared for and encouraged, showing much thankfulness for these small gifts of compassion.
