Dale HartmanIn December of 1990 I came to the Rescue Mission of Salt Lake in Utah. I been out of prison for about 6 months at this time. I was in prison for grand theft because I was supporting a drug habit. I had been homeless at times even before I had entered the mission in Salt Lake. While at the mission in Salt Lake I heard about the Spiritual Training Program and decided to see if I could get on it mainly because it was cold outside. After being there for about a week and hearing the Gospel I turned my life over to Christ.  

Allen PickettThough I had accepted Christ when I was a teenager, it was not until my mid-twenties that Christ became real to me and I began a serious effort to follow Christ. My Christian walk led me to Holmeswood Baptist Church where I soon became very involved in several different areas of ministry. The area that gave me the most satisfaction was in the Missions area. I discovered I enjoyed working with ministries that helped the poor and needy.
