Volunteers
HYS Volunteers really make it happen Hosea’s volunteers come from everywhere it
seems . . . like Rachel and Laura above, two college grad gals; each who have spent time in overseas ministry.
Local youth group kids, long time volunteers of all ages
from numerous churches, colleges, bible study groups,
caring individuals and families make up
Hosea’s volunteer force. . . . their simple reason . . .
“God has been merciful to me
and I want to be a blessing to others”
Ask the Hosea kids . . .
They’ll tell you what a blessing they truly are.

Today, we’re still learning . Happily, we’ve been able to increase our services to them adding;
more meals, clothing, blankets, personal hygiene supplies, as well as laundry and shower facilities,
all in an atmosphere of respect and acceptance.
For many, most importantly, Hosea is a place to rest
a while from their scrambling to “make it happen.”

“Because, I used to be one of them, and I really want them to know that God is right
there all the time taking care of them. They
can turn to Him at any time and He’ll be there
for them.” David V.
A meal and much more . . . Bible studies and a Friday evening Worship
Service known as Ragamuffin Church are
key elements of our offerings to the kids.
Well attended, these weekly events are a big
comfort and motivation to tackle uprightly the
numerous dangers and difficulties of life on
the streets.
