Patron at God's Extended Hand, SD
“The Orthodox that come in (Wednesday nights) are so great. I have made so many friends with them. I have seen FOCUS…you know, the Orthodox, being involved here for some years now. There is something different that I like. I really like the special meatloaf we had tonight…we have once a month!”

“I’m from the Pueblo Nation in New Mexico. I came here twenty years ago. I come around (God’s Extended Hand) a lot and I like it here. Thanks for talking to me”

“Im a native San Dieagan. I have a sister, but we live two different lives.
I come around God’s Extended Hand quite often, so I’ve met a lot of the Orthodox volunteers…
My favorite thing to do, besides going to church is roller skating, you know, like the racing kind with four wheels!”“Im a native San Dieagan. I have a sister, but we live two different lives.

Saba Sisters- Pittsburgh
“In our service, we meet people where they are and be there with them, and lift them up, as opposed to viewing them as a broken entity...because if we all have Christ in us, then we have to serve the Christ in all others.”
