About 6 months ago a young lady named Mara came to the Mission to volunteer in our community service program from her school as part of her graduation requirements. At that particular time she was homeless and in a very bad situation were she was being taken advantage of. The Mission helped her in contacting the Center for Youth where they were able to place her into the transitional housing program. She has since graduated from high school and now has a job at Nazareth College in the food service department.
When she recently stopped by the Mission to visit she was excited to give us the news about school and her job. She is looking for a new apartment now and doing very well. Nazareth is offering the opportunity to take classes as long as her job performance stays where it is.
She is also looking for a church to attend and is looking heavenward to improve her spritual life. Please keep Mara in prayer as she now starts a new life. She said she would keep the Mission updated as she progresses. She also said she missed volunteering at the Mission and the people here.
