Breakfast at Sally's

Recently I spent the day in a nearby town visiting and having breakfast with the homeless at the Salvation Army (Sally's). They offer many services to the homeless and needy which include three meals daily.

A friend arranged for me to have a meal and interview Richard LeMieux, (formerly homeless) the author of the book, Breakfast at Sally's. It was an excellent time of learning and I was able to share the gospel with him and others during the day.

Breakfast at Sally's is very well written and informs much about the homeless. 
However, it has very crude and filthy language in several places, language which did not need to be used and distracts from a wider use of the book.

Even though Margaret and I have worked with the poor here in the U.S. and other countries from the beginning of our ministry in 1968, we have a new partial understanding of the homeless and a concern to reach them with the Gospel and compassion. Will you join us?
