Last week we fed 750 people under the Colorado bridge. The annual “breakfast under the bridge “ to help fund The Place- a refuge for homeless youth in Colorado Springs, was a success with an unbelievable turnout. But while there, I witnessed a young man, not far from the food table experiencing withdrawal. Brought it all home to me. These kids are rejected by their parents, addicted, outcasts or out of sync.
We have an obligation to be better stewards and realize that they could be productive and fit in when given a chance. Just like someone who works with us at The Picnic Basket. He has come full circle from “The Place” to “Our Place. Thankful.
