Toledo Gospel Rescue Mission Golf Outing

The 15th Annual Golf for Hope, which is the longest running fundraiser for the ministries of Toledo Gospel Rescue Mission, is fast approaching. Currently, we’ve received about $10,000 in door prizes, however, financial sponsorships are very slim. I can not stress to you enough how crucial of a moment TGRM is in. Your support of this event is needed, not just to make the event successful, but also to strengthen TGRM’s ability to reach out even further to meet the needs of those who are homeless, hurting, and in need right here in the Toledo area.

Foundation for Life News

This is hopefully slipping into the background with Toledo City Council.  We are praying that is the case and this is a dead issue.

Even so, people can be encouraged to contact Toledo City Council members and ask that they stand against and vote no on any version of the proposed ‘patient safety’ ordinance.  The reasons to site when contacting President of Council, Matt Cherry and other council members is to impress on them that:

Toledo Remembers Sam Szor

This photo is of Sam Szor when he was conducting the Toledo Symphony Orchestra in the National Anthem for a Mudhens game.  They gave him the jersey to wear and he also threw out the first pitch. The pitch made it across home plate, I believe, but on a bounce!  Good thing he did music and not baseball!  :-)
“Sam Szor:  Toledo’s Mr. Music,” a biography of Sam’s professional life is available at Gathering Volumes Bookstore in Perrysburg, at Musical Resources 2020 N. Holland-Sylvania Rd, Toledo, at the Rockets Bookstore at 3047 W. Bancroft, Toledo and also on line at utoledopress.com.

Toledo Gospel Welcomes

Kelly & Family

Toledo Gospel Rescue Mission (TGRM.ORG), a Christian non-profit serving homeless and low-income clients in Lucas County since 1965, is pleased to announce the selection of Kelly Llanas as its new Executive Director. Ms. Llanas will be responsible for directing all operations of the ministry upon the retirement of TGRM’s current director, Rev. Thomas Clapsaddle, at the end of this year. TGRM Board President, Scott Bernhard, stated that Ms. Llanas brings years of experience in urban ministry, especially in the greater Toledo area. She has been intimately involved in TGRM operations as an employee and is uniquely qualified to implement TGRM’s strategic vision in the coming years. Ms. Llanas has a heart for those in need rooted in her love of Christ. As she puts it, “At the end of the day, it’s less about what we do and more about why we do it. I am proud to represent a ministry that believes that people have value, deserve to be treated with dignity, and can be transformed by the power and hope of the Gospel message.”  As the daughter of Rev. Clapsaddle, she looks forward to building on his legacy and serving Toledo’s homeless in the spirit of Matthew 25:35-36.

Your Debt Is Paid In Full!

Ever since Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit, death has been a curse on mankind.

The Apostle Paul tells us, “…sin came into the world through one man, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned –“

He’s not just talking about our physical death that comes from natural causes, old age or sometimes from unexpected circumstances. But he’s also talking about the eternal death of our spirit.
