Although I am no longer a "volunteer" at Sugartree Ministry/Father's Kitchen, I wish to express my gratitude and appreciation for the privilege afforded

to me t o serve those who are in "need". A special thanks goes out to Al Willoughby who has been faithful to God's calling on his life to serve the poor. He is an authe ntic man of God. I also thank my friends Rick, Adam, big Ron, kitchen Bob, Jack, Max, Alex, coffee Bob, Zach, Marion, and all of those who showed me Love, kind ness, and acceptance. Sugartree is one of 1,000's of ministries across the U.S. who serve and minister to the needs of the poor. These ministries are worthy of your support and prayers. This is what Jesus did and what we are all to do as a part of our worship to God for what he has done for us in Christ. I have decided to focus on finishing my work as an author and pursue other ministry opportunit ies that God is leading me into. As Jesus' disciples were, we are all ragamuffin 's who through God's Grace and Mercy are Loving others on our way to Heaven. Agape, R. Alan Woods
