Meet Jeff..
Jeff was a US veteran and a very nice man with more than average mental capabilities.Jeff did not make it through last winter. Some reason he got out from under three blankets and the sleeping bag we had given him and fell to the ground out behind one of our local merchant's store where he died...... It is unclear if he froze to death. Temperatures of below 30 degrees are not unusual for the San Joaquin Valley. Alcohol the demon that it is had him by the neck. He just could not break its hold. If we had just one more season we might have been able to lead him to the Lord.... But we didn't.

with a love for these outcasts from society. Many of them are lost in a sea of alcohol and drugs, swimming in fear and distrust of the whole human race. They have been kicked around and abused by parents, bosses, spouse,society and many blame God for their situation. Living on the streets they find no peace. One of my guys said to another when we were inviting him to church. "Man its two hours of not having to watch your back." In many cases these people are takin advantage of by younger and stronger people. I saw one young man steal a Bible from an old crippled man. Some of the things that happen are beyond belief. One of my guys came to the Van for lunch and I noticed he had big gashes held together by metal staples on his head. Some of the them were five to six inches long. I asked what had happened and he explained that he was in a park sleeping on a bench when a young man started hitting him in the head with brass knuckles which had large spikes protruding from them. Mans inhumanity to man is unbelievable.
