"Let us love one another, for love comes from God." – 1 John 4:7

I am proud to be a board member first, for its mission... it starts by stating" to demonstrate the compassion of Jesus Christ"... you can't go wrong with that! Secondly, the services that MT provides are always expanding according to the needs of the community.

I value the opportunity to serve a resource rich community. It is an honor and privilege to be a voice, provide insight but most of all, be an advocate for an organization that listens to the heartbeat of the people. The question of why Mel Trotter Ministries, my response, simply, why not.

My inspiration comes from the mission at Mel Trotter. Mel Trotter Ministries exists to demonstrate the compassion of Jesus Christ, through rescue and restoration for anyone experiencing hunger and homelessness.

I support and am involved with Mel Trotter Ministries because it offers the only real answer to the problems and challenges our clients face: Jesus Christ as Lord and savior.

I am motivated (and honored) to serve on the MTM Board because it provides me with a front-row seat to watch God do His amazing, life-changing work in the lives of His children here in West Michigan.

Meeting the most vulnerable people in our community just where they are and showing them the compassion of Jesus Christ.

I wish to utilize my talents to help this ministry assist those in need.

I am most inspired by the opportunity to positively impact and change lives through the grace of Christ, so that several years from now we will know that we have permanently progressed the conditions for men, women, and children.

Mel Trotter has a rich history of service to this community. From caring board members who are second generation, to employees with decades of service. Truly Christ is in this place.

Biblically, "to whom much has been given, much is required." I count it a joy to give to the needs of others as God enables and directs.

We are blessed to be a blessing, and it is a blessing to assist in demonstrating the compassion of Christ to the hungry, homeless and hurting of our community.

The work of this organization resonates with my faith by preaching a relevant gospel and practicing meaningful ministry that gives support to all those who need food, clothing, and shelter. Mel Trotter Ministries makes the difference in the lives of the very fine people it serves.
