This weekend Molly had an incredibleexperience that we are so excited to share! She was at an event in
Oceanside when one of our former Fill-A-Belly guests who we haven’t seen
in a few months came up and gave her a huge hug.
Three months ago this man, who I’ll
call Ron, was an addicted to alcohol and living on the streets in
Carlsbad. He would often come to Fill-A-Belly and cry about how he had
no hope of turning his life around. One of our volunteers, a recently
recovering addict, took Ron under his wing and they built a strong
friendship. The volunteer took it upon him self to get Ron into
recovery, found a facility with openings and even escorted Ron there.

When Molly saw Ron this weekend she
found out that he is still in recovery and doing great! He was full of
joy, looked super healthy, and is now leading worship services for his church. What a testimony to the power of the
relationships that are built at Fill-A-Belly! That’s why we keep
pressing on!!!
