Kokomo Rescue Mission

Kokomo is home to Doug because he grew up here. However, he has lived in other cities such as Indianapolis, Muncie and Bloomington where he attended IU and earned a degree in English. (AHH...So he is a wise man and he speaks very well!) Michigan and California are

two other states where he has lived but the sweet winds of Indiana called him back!

Doug enjoys the beautiful harmonies of a guitar. “On a good day, I spend four or five hours trying to play”, he states. (Yea, I’ll bet you can really rock the house.Ain't that right? or should I say, “Isn’t that correct, Doug?”...wink, smile)

Doug is not afraid to try new things. In fact, he has held several diverse positions in his life to round out his character! He has worked in factories, retail, restaurants, carried mail, construction, drove a taxi cab, and even taught guitar! Wow! What an impressive background’!”

Doug is a gentle, kind, quiet, reserved, dedicated and caring person. For six years now, he has faithfully showed his kindness in the KRM kitchen serving meals to hungry and hurting men, women and children. Recently, he has taken on the additional task of collecting donated foods from local businesses.

They arrived at Kokomo Rescue Mission ready to work, and WORK they did. Half the group came on Friday and the other half on Saturday. The young people raked leaves, washed windows, cleaned toys, moved supplies and served lunch They had a great time serving God by serving others.

They arrived on a bus!

After a tour of the Mission, they served lunch.
