Jesus said, "Follow me and I will make you fishers of men."

Do you remember Iain?

Iain has come alongside Ryan to assist him in the various aspects of his work. We have mentioned him in news stories previously.

Last week Iain wanted to go out onto the streets with Ryan and the team to see if he liked it. Iain has been homeless himself and feels that this is where his heart is.

Ryan always encourages his volunteers to give him feedback.

Iain said “Jesus said to Simon and Andrew, "Follow me and I will make you fishers of men." I was out on the streets with Ryan last week for the first time and as my background is 20-plus years of addiction and homelessness, and also a couple of stints in prison, I had the privilege of sharing my testimony. I shared the Good News of Jesus Christ and was also able to pray with people. I really feel that this is my calling and my heart is to see people set free

Ryan is continuing to mentor Iain and is looking forward to God doing great things through Iain in the kingdom of God.

Ryan is always on the lookout for new volunteers that have hearts filled with compassion, could that be you.
