Casting the Vision

On Tuesday, April 28 at 7:00 PM at Faith Community Church, we hosted a Dessert & Coffee "Casting the Vision" informational meeting on the future direction of His Steps and to hear what God is doing in the lives of men in the ministry. There were 70 in attendance.

We are so excited about the direction of the ministry and the involvement of people from all over our community, as well as people from all over the country.

During the meeting I gave an overview of how God has blessed us over the years with men from all over the country. In 2014 alone we were blessed to serve 12 men who came from Georgia, Alabama, Texas, California, Michigan, Kansas, and Hawaii.

Many people wonder why we have folks from all over. The main answer to that question is because of our affiliation with ACBC (Association of Certified Biblical Counselors) and the specific niche His Steps fills among other ministry programs. When a pastor or an ACBC counselor has a person in need of a residential program, many times they call ACBC and then we are referred, or they call a counselor who is aware of our program and we receive a referral from them.

Part of the Vision Casting meeting was to announce some new things for His Steps. Some of those new things include:

Implementation of new intake procedures
Development of a House Manager position
Increased size of the Board of Directors
Plans to expand the facility to an 8-10 bed capacity.

I have been very encouraged from all the positive feedback I have received since that meeting. Please continue to pray with us as we move forward.

Jesus is Lord,

Tim Brown
Director of His Steps Ministries

Praise and Prayer

Jacob from Texas graduated from the program and I received an email from his pastor in Texas reporting how encouraged they have been by the growth in Jacob’s life. Please pray for him as he settles back into to life, work and school.
Please also pray for Joseph who will be leaving next week and returning to Alabama. Please pray that he would continue to walk faithfully with our Lord.
