 | | There were already agencies providing 'three hots and a cot,' but we wanted to do something more." The House of Refuge, Pastor Rob says, deals with "immediate needs, spiritual needs and future needs." The residents learn conflict resolution and how to balance a checkbook, and each man gets help finding a job. |
