“I became homeless and found myself living on the streets of downtown Tacoma. I was 50 years old … I became very depressed and hopeless … I wanted to end my life many times. One day, a truck pulled down into the homeless camp where I stayed. A man appeared with supplies and began talking to us as if we were human beings. … Then, he asked if it was okay if he prayed for us and we said “yes”. … It was the first time that I felt valued and loved while I was outside. His name was Rodney, and he had a story of his own. … He visited us several more times and each time, he said a beautiful prayer for us. … Soon, in the dead of winter, I found housing! Rodney played a huge role in getting me off the streets. … His prayers gave me strength to not give up. Rodney is a dear friend of mine today. What Rodney does for homeless people is gives them love without judgement. … He is my hero.”
