After nine months of this devotion to prayer, the Lord woke Tim at 4 a.m. one morning to pray. He showed Tim a vision about reaching the homeless in the Pontiac area. This vision was simply a bottle of water, a sandwich, chips, and fruit in a paper lunch bag. Along with the vision the Lord showed Tim a picture of the homeless and said, \u201cFeed them.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A few hours later that morning Tim told his wife, Kim, about the vision. At first, he thought she would think he was crazy, that he would have to convince her. Instead, much to his surprise, her words were \u201cIf that\u2019s what God said to do, then we will do it.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That very day Tim and Kim began an outreach ministry to the homeless in the Pontiac, Michigan, area, about 10 miles from Clarkston. In the beginning Tim and his wife would buy the food and assemble the lunches. Soon the couple realized the outreach was growing; it had become more than the two of them could handle. Tim shared the vision with me, and I shared the vision with our congregation. Church volunteers were happy to help.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Food, clothing, tents, and hygiene products are donated by church members and by many outside the church, including families of church members, business owners, friends, and others.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As of July 2022, our church had passed out more than 18,000 lunches to those in need in the Pontiac area. Our volunteers deliver 40-50 lunches per day, six days a week, no matter what the weather brings! We also offer prayer and a Bible study to those who want it.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-4 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex
