Our mission this year is to learn to truly SEE people. The experience of being homeless is dehumanizing, and a huge part of the outreach at Church at the Park is to rehumanize individuals that struggle to separate their experience from their identity. A huge part of the humanization process is helping these individuals feel truly SEEN and loved. We worked with a former Sprague graduate and recent employee, John Marshall, who is the project manager at Church at the Park. We will be returning to the park on October third to build the final two raised beds!
