If anyone has complaints about the Good News Mission and they happen to reside there, then they have no good reason to be there. The Good News Mission has always been a place for people in dire need to get the assistance they need. It is not a flop house for those looking for an easy way out of any situation one might find themselves in. A man needs to work and be responsible for his own actions and not depend on trying to make this place into a place to flop. They have always been a valued asset to the community they serve. Anyone who has had to be there needs to thank God for the valued services they provide. Shame on anyone who might complain about those people and the people who donate their time and money to make it possible for someone to get back on their feet in such a place. These people saved my life with their food, bed, and medical care If I had a million dollars to donate it would be to this valued organization.
