This is how it all began, sometime mid year of 2013 my
Pastor, Charles Ragland, announce at church or mentioned in Sunday school or
somewhere that there was a ½ a day workshop about helping people in poverty at
First United Methodist Church here in Claremore. I knew of many organizations and charities
that help people with immediate needs but none that help people get out of
generational poverty. To say the least, I was intrigued. Pastor Charles and I attend
the Bridges Out of Poverty workshop and it all made really good sense to me and
so I signed on. A few months before the
workshop I had lost my desk job and decided to start flipping houses for a
while, by not having an eight to five job I would be able to put in some real
time helping to get this initiative off the ground. I really feel that God, once again, turned a
not so good thing into one of the biggest blessings of my life.
