LIFELINE OUTREACH SOCIETY

I first met Lifeline 21 years ago. I was living in alleyways and underneath
cardboard when it rained. My entire motivation in life was getting my next
drink. My upbringing had been harsh so I looked to alcohol for peace from the
age of 11 onward.

Then I met the Lifeline people. They were downtown with their “Blue Bus”,
serving up hot chilli and sandwiches, and giving out grocery bags and clothing.
I hit it off with them right away; I sensed that they truly cared. I felt they
could see my true heart through the façade I kept to protect myself.

So I kept coming back. Eventually, at my suggestion they began to explore rehab
with me. I went to multiple rehabs and we remained friends throughout all of
these transitions. They believed in me. They prayed over me, telling me that I
had great worth and that God had a good plan for my life. The Holy Spirit was
tugging on my heart strongly but my troubles didn’t end there. I spent some time
in jail. I vacillated between helping others and abusing substances.

Then one day I cried out to God to change my life, to either take the addiction
from me or to take me home to Him. From that day on I began to truly change. I
went to rehab one more time and started my new walk with God. He burned into my
heart what I wanted out of life, telling me that I had to change my behaviour
and my thinking would follow.
After 8 months of sobriety, I met a wonderful woman, got married, got a job, and
became a productive member of society. Life isn’t easy but my marriage is
growing and I am sober. I truly believe in God and am seeking Him out for
guidance on a daily basis. We attend Church and I find the support I need to
stay on the straight and narrow through friends, family and fellow Christians
and am looking at all the many blessings God has given me throughout my whole
life. I’ve always had a tender heart even at my worst times and now God is using
me to reach others who are in similar situations.

Lifeline started me on my walk with God. I will always be grateful for their
love, care, and support. My testimony is to “never quit trying for God never
gives up on you.” Lifeline certainly never gave up on me.

We exist to meet the critical needs of the homeless and less fortunate in the
downtown core of Abbotsford and Aldergrove BC. Started in 1988 by David

food bank (Registration # S-26572).

By taking our outreach into the streets of the downtown core we offer hope,
despite circumstances, by reaching out. With a stretched out hand, we help those

Lifeline empowers people to improve their lives, not only through assistance,
but by giving them hope.
