We were back in Benton Harbor, Michigan at the corner of Broadway & Empire again today after what seemed like a long winter. We will be ministering in Benton Harbor all summer. It was good to see so many of the old faces. The team did an awesome job today with so many people coming to eat and get supplies. We ministered to so many people today. We fed a mass of people till we ran out of food and drinks completely. We went through 112 polish sausages, 88 hotdogs, 80 grilled cheese sandwiches, chips and other snacks along with many cases of pop and water.
The team unloads and sets up for the outreach.
It was good to have brother Anthony LeBlanc out with us today. 
Eileen ministers to a brother that was a regular at last years outreaches. He still wears the hat that we gave him last year. 
Jimmie Hickman is in charge of the trailer and he does an excellent job of organizing and taking care of the equipment.
We had a large group of people in a hurry which had the grill area hopping. Layne & Cole Prathaftakis took over the grill duties with Layne cooking grilled cheese and Cole doing the polish and hotdogs. They did an awesome job today cooking non stop till everything was gone.
Eileen prays for a brother. 
I prayed for Nick who has had some health challenges and is battling with an alcohol problem. Nick spent a couple of hours with us today.
Pastor Lance, and Anthony with Pat who wants to be part of the team in Benton Harbor. She was a blessing to have around today.
A large group gets together for prayer. This was awesome!!!
Eileen did face painting today for the kids.
A couple of the kids that had their faces painted.
The kids really enjoyed having their faces painted. This is an area that does not have much for kids to do. The alcohol and drug problems are huge. We have to reach the kids for Jesus to be able to turn this area around.
Chris Connell was with us today and he did a great job on the food line.
Tony Huguley Jr. (Big Tony's son) and Brenda's nephew was out with us today for the first time and he was a big help. He has recently relocated and we look forward to having him as a new member of the team.
Sister Leigh with one of the ladies that she ministered to. Leigh and Brianna Santiago were on the grilled cheese crew today. This is one of the less popular duties, a big thanks to them for handling that area today.
We ministered to and prayed with many people today. The Lord really moved out there. We will be in Benton Harbor again on June 2nd. We will continue to build relationships with the people of Benton Harbor to win them to JESUS!!!! Next week we will be on the streets of New York City for our annual outreach there. Please pray for us. Several of the team could still use some financial help for this trip. If you can help click on the button below. We will be returning to weekly outreaches scheduled into August. We sure could use your financial help. Get connected to helping reach the lost for JESUS. We appreciate your prayers for the outreaches also.
GOD BLESS!!!!
