Street ministry in Seattle
Yesterday in the alley adjacent to the Purple Door I met Craig. He was assisting a mutual acquaintance. He's a very humble, quiet man, but with a huge heart. He's been working with and advocating for the homeless on the streets of Seattle for 19 years. Wow. If you've never worked with these folks, you can't even imagine the enormity of that. He does it because he can't
not do it - it is truly how he follows Jesus. Beautiful. The kind of Kingdom guy I need to learn from.
This morning I did a little snooping around on the web, and found his bio
here, and an excerpt from a book he wrote
here.
I'm looking forward to more talks with Craig. Hopefully it'll also lead to some ministry partnerships.
