Shining the Light!

The Opelousas Lighthouse Mission strives to meet homeless men at the crossroads in their life. Our main objective is to equip our residents with the tools to become self-sufficient and to become productive members of society again. We are not merely here to provide three meals a day and a place to sleep, but aim to enrich the lives of the men in a way that impacts them for the rest of their life. I believe that this can only be accomplished by the love of God.

Men seek GED here!

I am extremely excited that some of our men are currently working on getting their GED. They study for five days a week, and spend at least three hours each day working through books and other study material.

Education is very important to the success and future of these men, and this is a huge start. I am very proud of the work ethic of these men, and will continue to encourage more to get involved.

Real life change is occurring at the Lighthouse Mission. God is doing an amazing work here!

Blessings,
