18
00:00:47.799 --> 00:00:50.240

19
00:00:50.280 --> 00:00:53.439
<v Speaker 2>we definitely need it. We don't take any government money, yeah,

20
00:00:53.479 --> 00:00:55.600
<v Speaker 2>all donor based. And so we're trying to do a thing.

21
00:00:55.640 --> 00:00:58.359
<v Speaker 2>We're trying to help people get better and get stable.

22
00:00:58.439 --> 00:01:00.560
<v Speaker 1>And I've had a chance to do something with you. Guys,

23
00:01:00.600 --> 00:01:02.560
<v Speaker 1>every time I've ever worked with you, I've been so impressed.

24
00:01:02.600 --> 00:01:06.560
<v Speaker 1>It's a great organization, wonderful people doing wonderful things. And

25
00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:08.560
<v Speaker 1>there's a reason you've been around one hundred and twenty

26
00:01:08.599 --> 00:01:11.359
<v Speaker 1>five years, and you know it's because you have a

27
00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:12.400
<v Speaker 1>great team of people there.

28
00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:14.480
<v Speaker 2>We have a great team of people. But not only that,

29
00:01:14.519 --> 00:01:16.840
<v Speaker 2>it's needed. Yeah, so I would love not to be

30
00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:20.200
<v Speaker 2>a shelter in this community, but it's needed. And so

31
00:01:20.680 --> 00:01:22.359
<v Speaker 2>what we want to do is make sure that we're

32
00:01:22.359 --> 00:01:25.079
<v Speaker 2>loving people good, you know. And so how do you

33

<v Speaker 2>bring somebody back from that's hit the bottom, Well, you

34
00:01:28.599 --> 00:01:31.079
<v Speaker 2>bring them back with love. You love them just right

<v Speaker 1>Absolutely, the average person listening right now, how can they help?

37

<v Speaker 1>get involved in help?

41
00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:45.280
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, well, so we love people to come and

42
00:01:45.359 --> 00:01:47.840
<v Speaker 2>volunteer and get involved and see what we're doing. There's

43
00:01:47.879 --> 00:01:50.680
<v Speaker 2>so much to do down there. There's closed sorting and

44
00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:53.359
<v Speaker 2>because we give clothes away to the public, you know,

45
00:01:53.719 --> 00:01:56.159
<v Speaker 2>you can come down and do volunteerism. You can come

46
00:01:56.200 --> 00:01:59.040
<v Speaker 2>down and just see what we're doing. Help out in

47
00:01:59.040 --> 00:02:02.280
<v Speaker 2>the kitchen. You one hundred and forty two thousand meals

48
00:02:02.319 --> 00:02:04.879
<v Speaker 2>a year through our kitchen. We don't close. We're open

49
00:02:05.280 --> 00:02:07.560
<v Speaker 2>seven days a week, three meals a day. We don't

50
00:02:07.719 --> 00:02:10.800
<v Speaker 2>we're not you know, some places closed in town, but

51
00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:13.479
<v Speaker 2>we don't close. We keep on feeding people. And the

52
00:02:13.520 --> 00:02:16.360
<v Speaker 2>weekends we feed a lot of people. Six seven hundred

53
00:02:16.360 --> 00:02:19.080
<v Speaker 2>people during the weekend. It's awesome, you know. So all

54
00:02:19.120 --> 00:02:21.879
<v Speaker 2>we got food boxes. You can come down on Tuesdays

55
00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:25.400
<v Speaker 2>and Thursdays from one to four come help pass out

56
00:02:25.439 --> 00:02:27.680
<v Speaker 2>food to people with need. Like so we did three

57
00:02:27.719 --> 00:02:31.199
<v Speaker 2>thousand food boxes last month, wow, which is huge, right. So,

58
00:02:31.560 --> 00:02:34.280
<v Speaker 2>but everything that we do has a little bit of

59
00:02:34.319 --> 00:02:37.520
<v Speaker 2>cost to it, right, So we get great donations from

60
00:02:37.520 --> 00:02:39.919
<v Speaker 2>people in our community and things like that, and so

61
00:02:40.039 --> 00:02:42.599
<v Speaker 2>we're able to do these things. And so we also

62
00:02:42.680 --> 00:02:45.439
<v Speaker 2>do case management. And if you are nurse, we have

63
00:02:46.199 --> 00:02:48.479
<v Speaker 2>in Midwest street Medicine that works out of the mission.

64
00:02:48.680 --> 00:02:50.800
<v Speaker 2>You can join them. There's so much you can do.

65
00:02:50.960 --> 00:02:52.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, So if you're listening and you're going, I would

66
00:02:53.000 --> 00:02:55.439
<v Speaker 1>like to get involved. I would like to help reach out.

67
00:02:55.560 --> 00:02:58.240
<v Speaker 1>Talk to the folks at Union Gospel Mission, they'll find

68
00:02:58.240 --> 00:03:00.479
<v Speaker 1>a good place for you to help. Or if you're saying, boy,

69
00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:02.280
<v Speaker 1>I just don't have the time, but I could certainly

70
00:03:02.280 --> 00:03:04.240
<v Speaker 1>write a check to help with the things that they're doing.

71
00:03:04.639 --> 00:03:07.680
<v Speaker 1>That is very helpful as well. And if they want

72
00:03:07.719 --> 00:03:09.280
<v Speaker 1>to do that, they find you just go to the

73
00:03:09.280 --> 00:03:11.240
<v Speaker 1>website or stop it and see it. What's the best way.

<v Speaker 2>Ours is about thirty minutes. Yeah, you'll spend some time

83
00:03:29.800 --> 00:03:31.520
<v Speaker 2>and there's a lot to see. Lots that we have

84
00:03:31.639 --> 00:03:34.159
<v Speaker 2>done there in the last five years, and so we've

85
00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:37.319
<v Speaker 2>really changed some things to make it where we're helping

86
00:03:37.360 --> 00:03:41.639
<v Speaker 2>people get better and helping people really become stable in

87
00:03:41.719 --> 00:03:42.479
<v Speaker 2>what they're doing.

88
00:03:42.680 --> 00:03:47.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Again, Union Gospel Mission exciting thing. One hundred and

89
00:03:47.879 --> 00:03:50.800
<v Speaker 1>twenty five years, they've been around now one hundred and

90
00:03:50.800 --> 00:03:53.520
<v Speaker 1>twenty five years on Saint Patrick's Day. So you're gonna

91
00:03:53.560 --> 00:03:55.240
<v Speaker 1>have a big party. Is it on Saint Patrick's Day?

92
00:03:55.240 --> 00:03:56.639
<v Speaker 2>It is on Saint Patrick's Day. You can go to

93
00:03:56.639 --> 00:03:58.199
<v Speaker 2>the website and see it. You can get us on

95
00:04:01.840 --> 00:04:05.719
<v Speaker 2>it's from like noon to seven and night, and so

96
00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:09.319
<v Speaker 2>it's a stop in. We're gonna be having people talking

97
00:04:09.360 --> 00:04:12.719
<v Speaker 2>about how the missions help them throughout their life and

98
00:04:13.080 --> 00:04:15.719
<v Speaker 2>where they're at now. So we're gonna have some testimonies

99
00:04:15.759 --> 00:04:18.720
<v Speaker 2>of people saying, here's what's happened from when I was

100
00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:22.800
<v Speaker 2>homeless and now I'm not homeless and I'm doing better.

101
00:04:22.839 --> 00:04:26.360
<v Speaker 2>So we'll have people talking about their story. We'll have food,

102
00:04:28.519 --> 00:04:31.399
<v Speaker 2>so just come down and visit. We'll have cookies. So

103
00:04:31.639 --> 00:04:33.680
<v Speaker 2>you had me at cookies, I know, right, just come

104
00:04:33.720 --> 00:04:35.920
<v Speaker 2>on in and have a cookie. But the best thing

105
00:04:36.000 --> 00:04:37.560
<v Speaker 2>is to do because a lot of people go, I

106
00:04:37.800 --> 00:04:41.120
<v Speaker 2>didn't realize that the mission does all this, and so

107
00:04:41.759 --> 00:04:44.360
<v Speaker 2>we do all this. We keep on doing the thing

108
00:04:44.519 --> 00:04:46.800
<v Speaker 2>in Suit Falls to help the people that need help.

109
00:04:47.079 --> 00:04:49.879
<v Speaker 2>And we're not giving a handout, we're giving a hand up,

110
00:04:50.040 --> 00:04:53.519
<v Speaker 2>So we're really helping people get better and stable. We

111
00:04:53.600 --> 00:04:57.439
<v Speaker 2>put three hundred and sixty six people in housing last year.

112
00:04:57.879 --> 00:05:01.199
<v Speaker 2>Amazing and no recipt of divisions. They're not getting out,

113
00:05:01.240 --> 00:05:04.319
<v Speaker 2>they're staying in the system. They're staying as taxpayers. Now

114
00:05:04.519 --> 00:05:07.360
<v Speaker 2>they have jobs, they're doing the thing. And so that's

115
00:05:07.560 --> 00:05:10.160
<v Speaker 2>just last year. Yeah, and so we keep on doing this,

116
00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:12.680
<v Speaker 2>We keep on working with people. But the biggest thing,

117
00:05:12.839 --> 00:05:15.920
<v Speaker 2>it really costs money to do this. So if anybody's

118
00:05:15.920 --> 00:05:18.519
<v Speaker 2>out there willing to donate, you know, a million dollars

119
00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:20.879
<v Speaker 2>or two million or even five bucks.

120
00:05:21.399 --> 00:05:23.720
<v Speaker 1>You know what I said, You got me at closer there.
