The Concern for Neighbors Food Bank in Mountlake Terrace received $66, and $68 was given to Vision House to help with their ministry of helping people transition from homelessness to living on their own.
Opening Blind Prison Ministry received $109.20 from mission distribution money to help with the ministry to inmates at the Monroe Prison. Currently Rev. “Rip” Van Winkle is working with inmates at the Special Offenders Unit which is made up of prisoners with more than one mental illness. A quote from one of Rev. Rip’s newsletters says, “Jesus came to befriend sinners and to ultimately save them. Angels announced his birth to shepherds whom the Pharisees considered unclean since they took care of sheep on the Sabbath. Jesus always loves us and God never tires of giving us second chances. Thank you for your support that allows me to offer God’s second chances to inmates.”
