To our trusted volunteers and friends, Building on momentum and enthusiastic community support, we have already delivered $9000 worth of socks, caps, shirts, coffee and Blessing Bags to homeless in Seattle, Yakima and Spokane. Ruth and Fred are excited regarding new opportunities.
We ask a blessing upon the homeless,
marginalized and underserved in our midst.
We remember our sisters and brothers—adults,
families, children– who are living with
no security, no shelter, and no safety from
the outside world.
Help us to provide extra warmth, peace and
opportunity for a better life. May we
supply nourishing food and drink that
their bodies may be nourished.
May we open our hearts and our hands to ease
their worries and provide hope where
there is no hope.
Through the giving of our time and our treasure,
may we demonstrate our love and pledge
that people on the street shall never be
forgotten.
May I offer compassion to those in need and
never miss an opportunity to work towards
ending poverty and homelessness so that no
one will live in want or in hunger.
In 1998, The Rev. Fred Hutchinson and Dr. Ruth Bishop set out to create a community that would serve the needs of Seattle’s homeless population. They began providing clothing, new hats, mittens, and prepared meals to the marginalized and underserved populations in our midst
