Operation Joy…

Provides Vital Assistance On The Streets Of Manchester.

Sometimes I am asked to obtain a birth certificate for somebody on the streets. This happened recently when C needed some identification, but she was unable to give me an address so I had to depend on meeting him on the street again. On the second outreach session after ordering the certificate C turned up in Market Street, Manchester, and was able to take it; the certificate will be of help in getting a permanent address.

Later the same day I came across A & L for the first time in five years. After a catch up of events I was able to take a contact number for A, and within 24 hours L had sent a friend request on social media giving more options for maintaining contact. This is a couple who evidently have an interest in spiritual things and it is hoped that they can be followed up.
