Full Speed Ahead
More than four months ago we launched our Cream And Sugar project, and since the first day it has just been amazing. It is really not easy to express our excitenent in words. On average we have 20 guests each day. If it is really cold up to 40 people hang out at the trailer.
We are especially grateful that we are not just "one more soup kitchen." We are a fellowship. During the last few weeks the Lord has given us some many new friends, and we have a been able to build wonderful relationships. The trust and respect people give us is wonderful. The young homeless especially, who the Lord placed on our hearts, are regular guests. We had creamandsugar.org buttons and patches made, and the people are crazy about them.
Whenever possible we take the opportunity to pray for people. It is especially exciting when people we have known for a long time open their hearts to us. The Lord is doing great things, and he has a plan and a purpose for every one of them.

One More Friend
Tom used to be our neighbor. He was one of the few people who did not like us at all. When he was around he always cursed at us. At first we tried to talk to him andfind out what the problem was. This proved to be useless, and one year went by.
Shortly before Christmas he approached us and asked if we were having a Christmas party on the streets this year. We were more than surprised. At the party he apologized for being so mean to us. Now he is a regular guest at the Cream And Sugar trailer.
Last week he told us,
"Unfortunately I don't have a family any more. You are now my family."
The Lord has done an amazing miracle.
Housing Situation
By the end of the summer, we as a ministry will move onto a new property where we will be able to stay for a long time. There will be a lot of space for the ministry to grow. We are really grateful that the Lord provided this place for us. He gave us a lot of favor with the owner, and although it will take another six months for the place to be ready it has been already promised to us.
We have to leave of our current location by March 1st, so we will move into apartments for the next six months. This will be a temporary solution. All our outreaches and projects will continue as usual.
