“I hope it will make a difference in educating people on the barriers that exist out there,” he says. “People tend to identify with personal stories, which have far more impact then the words of an politician or activist.”

Paul suffers from a degenerative bone disease which has placed many limitations of his life, both physically and financially. Before he came to live at Evangel Hall Mission, Paul’s living conditions were becoming unlivable, as he had to climb 2 flights of stairs using two canes. It was becoming increasingly painful as was the stress of not knowing where to find his next meal.

It was in search of food where Paul came to learn of Evangel Hall Mission. When he walked through our doors, his life was dramatically improved. He now has a new home and full support for his disability.

“What happens here is special,” he says. “Evangel Hall is doing what the government will not do in regards to housing and support. It is good to know that the Presbyterian church and EHM supporters care enough to build this place.”
