1-800-GET-HELP

So here’s one of the unexpected aspects of doing ministry in Vegas…

In my twelve years in Virginia Beach, I think maybe three times I had someone contact me from somewhere else in the country to tell me about a hurting friend or arrested relative or bottoming out acquaintance in Virginia Beach, and would you please call the person and see if you could help?! I got that call last weekend … twice. In ten months here in Vegas it’s already happened almost ten times.

This is a city where broken people go, and where healthy people go and start hurting, and everyone seems to know someone who’s life is a mess in Vegas. It’s gonna make life here interesting…
