View pics of our Los Angeles Mission/Say Yes Field Trip that our staff at WACC took a couple of months ago.

Our day started in prayer on the bus for a safe trip and to open our hearts and minds to the lives we have been touching and continue to touch here at WACC. It was filled with seeing the rooms the Skid Row kids an go to for tutoring, food, care and a safe and God filled place to hang out. We received a tour of all the facilities and saw the great tv, game, kitchen room that WACC remodeled last year. The next project is their basketball court that needs major repair and updating.

We then took a walk right down the middle of Skid Row to the LA Mission. Homeless covering all sides and middle of the street. The LA Mission is a place the homeless can go for free meals, daily or short term housing(if they are accepted into one of their programs to get them off the streets). When men and women come for a meal, it is a requirement to sit through chapel. They hear God’s word and wonderful woship music. We toured the housing, chapel, offices (with our WACC member Jim Rowe) and even were fed a meal in the cafeteria.

It was a very humbling and educational experience of what the LA Mission and Say Yes is trying to do for our homeless. Leading them to better lives through God.
