Skid Row w/ EFree Emerge



I joined Emerge, a ministry of my church, Evangelical Free Church of Diamond Bar (DiamondBarChurch.com) on a Sunday morning to help feed the homeless in Skid Row.

Here's a slideshow of what I captured.

Thank you Luke Pamplin for finding a perfect tune..
Song: Thrice - 'Come All You Weary'

This is Tony. Never did get his last name. He started to talk to me as I was on the ground shooting. He asked, "What's this for?". I explained and we held a 20 minute conversation. We talked bout a lot of things, how he got there (homeless), politics, weather, and God. He grabbed some clothing and prayed with the rest of us. When we departed, I asked, "Hey, I need your info!", then I thought to myself, how would he have any, address, cell phone, e-mail. He answered, "I'll see you in heaven." And that's when it hit me. "Of course, heaven! I'll see you there." We both smiled and went our ways. God bless Tony.
