Kentucky Recovery Program Stepping Up to Help Others W/Super Cool Fundraiser [PHOTOS]
Friends of Sinners Recovery Program is still seeking your donations for their "Feet of Jesus" fundraiser. Here's what to do.
HAVE YOU HEARD OF FRIENDS OF SINNERS?
Friends of Sinners is a Christ-centered residential substance recovery program focusing on the restoration and reconciliation of men and women to Christ through biblical truths, accountability, and life skills. The organization began in 2009 and continues to thrive today.
This is the brand-new location at 731 Jackson Street. The men's ministry will move in later on this year and call it home.
The women's program is located on Triplett street here in Owensboro and serves many women in our community both in-house and transitional.
SHOES SERVE A BIG PURPOSE
Raise your hand if you've got an abundant amount of shoes! I am raising two hands and my feet too. There are adults and children in other countries that don't even have one pair of shoes to their name. FOS is stepping up to do something about it.
According to imaworldhealth.org;
Many students in Haiti, however, don't share their experiences. Often, children wear ill-fitting shoes that have been handed down—if they have shoes at all. Without proper footwear, children run the risk of being injured or exposed to hookworm and other soil-transmitted diseases that enter through the feet.
FEET OF JESUS FUNDRAISER
Friends of Sinners is facilitating a new fundraiser called “Feet of Jesus.” This is a shoe drive fundraiser and proceeds benefit FOS while the shoes are being sent to Haiti to be given to those in need. I spoke with Jordan Wilson, Development Director, at Friends of Sinners and he explained what the fundraiser was all about;
We are asking for people to donate new or gently used shoes. Men's, women's, kids, boots, sandals, literally any shoes that are in good shape. The shoe drive runs till the end of July. We will have shoe drop-off boxes at the fos men's facility which is located at 320 clay st. Owensboro Ky and at our women's facility, 730 Triplett st. Owensboro Ky. There will also be drop boxes at various churches in Owensboro. For more information, please call our women's facility and speak with Tammy Keown. 270-683-7007.
Collection boxes will be placed at the following churches and locations in town:
MATTHEWS TABLE-119 W. 24TH STREET
OWENSBORO CHRISTIAN-2818 NEW HARTFORD ROAD
SUGAR GROVE BAPTIST CHURCH-8275 SUGAR GROVE ROAD
