PRM Night at the ballpark!

Friday, August 13 was Piedmont Rescue Mission's Night at the ballpark at the Burlington Royals stadium. It was a great game that went into extra innings and we were able to collect some donations for the ministry. I will add some pictures to this post when I get them downloaded. Be looking for upcoming posts about our annual Greater Vision Banquet and other upcoming events.

Ministering to the Lost in Kenya, East Africa

As we start this new year at the minstries of Piedmont Rescue Mission, we would like to thank all of you who have supported us through these difficult financial times. God has continued to provide our needs through the gracious support of churches, individuals, businesses, and civic groups.

As we start this new year, we ask that you continue to remember us in your prayers and it is our hope that you will continue to support these much needed ministries. Whether it is a man seeking shelter, a young pregnant girl who needs guidance and help, a troubled teen at Grace Haven, or a church in Kenya that needs help, your support makes all of these ministries possible.

I thought you might like to see just a few pictures of what goes on in these ministries, so enjoy them.

If you want more information about the ministries of Piedmont Rescue Mission, or would like to take a tour of our facilities, just call us at 336-229-6995.

January Community Meal

We had a great turnout at our January Community Meal. We had this as our Christmas MEal since the first meal was affected by the weather.

We fed over 150 people and WFMY NEWS 2's weekend anchor Tracy McCain came out and took some fotage that was featured on the news.

We also handed out new toys to the needy children who attended. A big thank you to all who donated toys, or their time so we could minister to the community!

Go to our website at http://www.piedmontrescuemission.org/ and look on the home page for the link to that news footage.

Again, we thank all those who support the ministries of Piedmont Rescue Mission. We can't do it without you!

Our 2009 Community Thanksgiving Meal was a great success! We fed about 225-250 people who were in need of a hot meal, and we shared the gospel with them during our service! Thanks to all of the volunteers who helped make this event possible, and thanks to our cooks who prepared the meal. Our executive director even gave an interview to WFMY Channel 2, who was there to film some footage of the meal. We are trying to secure that footage, and then I will post it on our website at http://www.piedmontrescuemission.org/ .

1st Annual Ride to provide

Here are some pictures from our Ride to Provide Bike Fundraiser back in November. Thanks to all who attended and helped us to raise some much needed funds for the mission!

Greater Vision Banquet 2009 pictures

Our annual Greater Vision Banquet was a wonderful time of fellowship and we hope all that attended had a great time. We thank all of those who donated to the ministries of Piedmont Rescue Mission. We could not continue the work the Lord has called us to do without your faithful support. We also would like to thank all of our Table sponsors who allowed us to provide this meal at no cost to our guests. I will post a complete list of them in the next post.

Our keynote speaker was Rob Mitchell, author of the book "Castaway Kid", which tells of his life as an orphan and how a relationship with God changed his life. To find out more about Rob and his book, please visit http://www.castawaykid.com/ . We raised some much needed funds, but are still struggling to keep all of the minstries of Piedmont Rescue Mission funded. Please pray for us as we seek God's will and trust in Him for the needs of the ministry.
