Dear SoupFriends,
Greeting from the SoupMan!
A Church for the Homeless! I can see you scratching your
head and saying ‘What’s that all about SoupMan?’ What crazy idea is the SoupMobile
chasing now? Well I’m glad you asked. In case you haven’t heard, the SoupMobile
is building a church for the homeless in South Dallas. Oh yeah, you heard
right! We are putting up a real live church building. It’s the real deal.
At SoupMobile Church the homeless will receive the call to
Christ every week from SoupMobile Pastor—Sister Lisa. Additionally
the church will provide counseling, job training, life skills training
and lots
of wholesome activities like barbecues and picnics.
SoupMobile Church will be a one of a kind in the entire
nation. A church where the homeless will be the ‘Members’ and if we attend we
will be their ‘Guests’. A revolutionary concept to be sure but as one of our
supporters said, “Why hasn’t somebody thought of this before.”
Some people think we’re crazy to build a church for the
homeless. They are thinking, what does a Church have to do with ‘Feeding the
Homeless.’ We think it has a lot to do
with it. For more than a decade the SoupMobile has fed the bodies of the
homeless with hearty and healthy food but even more importantly SoupMobile Church will feed their souls.
Regarding that 'thinking we are crazy' idea? Yep, we are totally,
completely, absolutely, entirely, fully, unconditionally, thoroughly,
unmitigatedly and wholeheartedly ‘crazy’ about Christ!
May the Lord Bless & Keep You & Yours!
Signed, David Timothy, a.k.a. The SoupMan
