LIves Under Construction

5/1/2021

 
"For we are God’s fellow workers. You are God’s field, God’s building." (1 Corinthians 3:9)

Building People
Renovation, repair, and new life are all themes of the work that takes place here at Strong Life Ministries.  Our goal is to serve as a place those who have been deeply damaged by the turmoil of this world can rebuild and begin anew.  One of the ways we do that is to make laptop computers available for those who are seeking to apply for employment, fill out necessary forms, or further their education.
 
Recently, one of our clients used a Strong Life laptop to enroll in an online degree program.  Beginning this summer, Lisa will start the journey toward a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration!  Another of our clients, Andre, used a laptop to find a job opening at Wingstop, complete the online application, and schedule an interview. Now, he’s a full time employee!  Way to go Lisa and Andre! (Editor’s note:  names have been changed to protect privacy.)

Building Our Campus
At the same time that Strong Life is helping rebuild people, we are rebuilding parts of our campus.  The building that houses our Rescue Mission was designed as a single-family structure.  It is now being used to provide restrooms, laundry, and showers for as many as 30 people a day.  Not surprisingly, the existing septic system is insufficient to support these services.  We are now having to run over 350 feet of new underground line in order to connect to the City of Hickory sewer system. This is one of many reconstruction projects that Strong Life has faced in its ongoing efforts to build and rebuild structures and lives that will make a difference for all eternity.

Support Strong Life This Month
As many of you know, whether it is a new building or renovations, construction is expensive!  Would you prayerfully consider partnering financially with Strong Life as we work to build the Kingdom of God among the homeless in Catawba County?
 
Most people in America take for granted their access to toilets, showers, and laundry.  This is not the case for the people we serve.  By making these basic necessities available, this is one of the tangible ways we demonstrate Christ’s love.  The plumbing project is essential if we are to continue to do this.  But at this point, it is not fully paid for.  We need your help to complete the work.
 
Also, the laptops we allow our clients to use have seen better days.  At times they move very slow, and sometimes they freeze and have to be restarted.  If you have a laptop in good working order that you are not using or are ready to replace, would you consider donating it to our ministry?  You can be certain that it will continue to be put to good use helping people rebuild broken lives.
