Someone Invited Him


Steve visited church as a teen for a while after his brother committed suicide.  He stopped attending church and moved on with his life with a career and marriage.  He felt empty inside, and his life gradually fell apart.  He became addicted to heroine, his wife left, and he was jobless.  After his third time going through drug treatment, he moved into a sober house.  A guy there invited him to come to church with him at Cornerstone Evangelical Free Church.  On his third visit to church, he noticed an announcement for a missions trip to Staten Island with ReachGlobal Crisis Response.  He checked into what a missions trip was, and he decided he would like the opportunity to help other people get back into their homes.

On the trip, he found true faith in Christ.  He came back to help for a couple of extra weeks.  Steve said, “This is amazing.  I would have never guessed any of this would happen.  I am very blessed.”
