Feed New Mexico Kids Executive Director, Tracy Rodden describes the sick feeling and sadness she experienced as a child when she had to go days without food. She directs our thoughts to school aged children 5-18 years of age who are food insecure, and she challenges our listeners to think about the lives of these students, and how they will grow up if we help them now!  Feed New Mexico Kids is a non-profit organization providing food for children on the weekends. Many school Districts around the country provide breakfast and lunch for students during the school week, but many students have nothing to eat on the weekends!  Tracy explains how easy it is for churches and businesses to “adopt” a neighborhood school and help provide food for children on the weekends.

Lifeline Global Ministries was founded because of a desire for restoration. More than a decade ago, they were invited into the Louisiana State Prison – commonly known as Angola. The inmates there were hungry for Biblical truth and were looking for tools to grow in their faith. From that initial visit grew what is now known as Lifeline Global.

Lifeline Global Ministries works to restore and equip incarcerated men and women to become godly parents so that the generational cycle of incarceration can be broken. 

They work to teach and shepherd incarcerated women and men into becoming the godly parents they are meant to be – that they can be through the transforming power of the Gospel. They work with prisons and penitentiaries, churches and communities, volunteer groups and individuals to equip, resource, and transform lives.

Mike Royals joins us to share the vision of the ministry.
