A Message from<br />
Perry Jones, Executive Director<br />
As we celebrate the resurrection of Christ I am reminded of the<br />
words of the apostle Peter.<br />
“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In<br />
his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope<br />
through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.”<br />
At <strong>Capital</strong> <strong>City</strong> <strong>Rescue</strong> <strong>Mission</strong> new birth and living hope are all around us in<br />
the form of lives being transformed by the resurrection power of Christ.<br />
Inside you will read about Victor who is filled with hope because of his new life<br />
in Christ. He is employed, living a life free from addiction, and eager to share<br />
the good news of salvation with others. His joy is reflected in his gratitude to the<br />
<strong>Mission</strong>. Thank you for offering him help and hope!<br />
This spring your volunteer efforts and special gifts will help complete an entire<br />
floor of studio apartments for the Supportive Housing Project: Furnishing Hope.<br />
Please call to schedule a tour! You can see the progress and you may<br />
identify the volunteer project with which your family, small group or office<br />
would like to help.<br />
Thank you for abundantly giving your time, your talents and your treasure…so<br />
men, women and entire families can experience transformed lives.<br />
Gratefully,<br />
“For we are God’s fellow workers…”<br />
Easter...Miracle of New Life<br />
…and again we turn to the immortal<br />
words of Job, “I know that my<br />
redeemer lives, and that in the end he<br />
will stand upon the earth.”<br />
These words are all about Easter. The<br />
empty tomb. A risen Lord…a Lord<br />
who helps us feed the hungry, comfort<br />
the fearful, and befriend those who<br />
have no one to turn to.<br />
He is also a Lord who wants us to<br />
provide rescue for the long haul. Not<br />
simply food and clothing for the body.<br />
He is a Lord who, through the power of<br />
the resurrection, is able to bring hope<br />
and new life to all who repent and call<br />
in faith upon His name.<br />
This is the work we see God doing<br />
every day. We don’t make the<br />
transformation happen – He does. But<br />
you are partners.
