For months, our outreach team has shown up week after week in homeless areas and seedy hotels, building relationships and offering hope.

A few months ago we met Deric a combat veteran who found himself battling addiction and homelessness. After months of outreach, he finally accepted help. He’s now close to completing rehab and will soon enter our 12-month residential program.

We want to honor this milestone by setting Deric up with a room of his own—a space that represents dignity and a fresh start.
We’re looking for:�• Twin bed�• Dresser�• Bedside table�• Rug�• Small desk

We’re incredibly thankful for what the Lord is doing in the lives of the men at RPM.
Today we celebrated Josh Wright completing our 12-month program.
Josh stood at a crossroads … continue the street life or surrender his life to Jesus. He chose Jesus.
And this is what transformation looks like.
All glory to God.

On one of our regular Wednesday outreaches, we walked to a few of the hidden spots we’ve learned about over time. One of those spots was about 100 feet back in the woods, along the bank of a ditch. When we got back there, we noticed a new tent.

We walked up and met Brandon. We talked with him, prayed for him, and shared what we had to offer. He was very open and willing to get help, but there was one obstacle—he had a dog he was taking care of and didn’t want to leave behind.

That’s when Eric, our program director, made the call: if taking care of the dog was what it took for Brandon to go to treatment, we’d do it. Brandon agreed. We dropped the dog off at the house and took Brandon straight to the rehab facility.

While Brandon was in treatment, **the guys in the program** made sure his dog was well cared for. Brandon finished treatment about a week ago and is now at the house, ready for real change.

While he was in treatment, Brandon shared his story about how we found him. Because of that story, two other solid guys decided to come to the house as well.

Stories like this only happen because of people who choose to partner with us. If you believe in second chances, restoration, and real life change, consider partnering with Restoring Purpose Ministries. The link to give is in our bio.

**Today we celebrate Sefu Scaife!**
Sefu has officially graduated from the *Restoring Purpose Ministries* 12-month program! Over the past year, the Lord has done an incredible work in his life — restoring his relationship with his father, setting him on a path toward his career through school, and most importantly, leading him to surrender his heart to Jesus.

We’re so proud of Sefu and can’t wait to see him continue to thrive in all that God has called him to!

Here’s an Opportunity to Show Love

We’re walking with some amazing people who have been working hard to rebuild their lives.

* A single mother, her 3 children, and her elderly mother—who were living in their car.

* Others who have overcome addiction and are stepping into a brand-new chapter.

The good news: they’ve secured housing! �The challenge: they need furniture and home essentials to truly make it a home.

This is where we can come together as a community to love our neighbors well.

We’re looking for:
* Bunk beds
* Twin beds
* Kitchen tables
* Couches
* Bedside tables
* Dressers / chests of drawers
* Kitchen supplies
We’re also putting together an Amazon list with some additional needs.

📩 DM us if you’re able to help out—it all makes a difference.

This is a great day of the Lord’s provision! We were praying for 2 laptops for our staff…and 3 were just donated!
A huge thank you to for all of the years of faithful support of RPM. You help make the rescues possible.

🚨 We’re in need of some storage 🚨
A sea can (shipping container) would be a HUGE help to us right now. I know somebody out there has the hook up or knows someone who does!
If you’ve got a lead or can connect us with the right person, please let me know. This would be a game-changer for what we’re building!
🙏 Thanks in advance for helping us spread the word!

It was a Zoo day for some of the RPM men!

What a blessing!
We just had a really nice car donated to Restoring Purpose Ministries! After a tough month full of vehicle issues and repair costs, this couldn’t have come at a better time.

A huge thank you to Mr. Terry Breau for his generosity. Mr. Terry has been faithfully helping RPM for years—giving guys rides to work, doctor appointments, and even court dates. Now, his contribution will go even further, helping our men get to work every single day of the week.

If you have a used vehicle that you would like to donate, we assure you it will go directly toward helping people continue to move forward in their lives.

We’re so grateful for partners like Terry who believe in our mission and help make life transformation possible.
