Stand Down
Our church has started a new E-series called Life at CF. It's basically a collection of stories of the lives being changed by Christ through the various ministries of Christ Fellowship.
Recently I was asked to do some shots for one of these up-coming accounts they will be publishing.
This particular story is about a small group member, psychologist Dr. Casmiro Hampton-Crockett. She is a coordinator for a local non-profit organization called Stand Down which assists local veterans who have become homeless due to addictions such as drugs and alcohol.
Dr. Crockett has a passion for the physical well-being of these men, but also realizes that it goes much deeper than that, into the soul. She knows that the only way to true healing, physically and spiritually, is through Christ. Her desire is to introduce these men who have given so much to the One who can give them more than they could ask or hope for--a new life. Because of her love for God and these men, many of these veterans are now regularly attending weekend services and making giant steps in their new life in Christ.
What an honor and blessing it was to meet this loving woman of God and the precious men she's poured so much in to. Her obedience has made an eternal difference in the lives of these veterans and the joy they are now experiencing in their walk with the Lord is evident in thier smiles.

She has an amazing heart... wonder if the 4-H group could do some community service for that organization?
yes, we can! i've already asked her and she said she'd be in touch with me very soon...exciting, huh?
Very Exciting!! Veterans Day (coming up) takes on new meaning when you put faces to the word veteran. Glad the kids lives will be touched by this awesome ministry. Can't wait to see that post!
