Hint: it’s WAAAYYYY more than you’re thinking!

For example, AFF offers so much more than just a shelter. Come out Wednesday night for a panel discussion at the Marshall Public Library and check it out!

Marshall Public Library is pleased to host an inspiring event with important organizations in our city. Come and enjoy an interesting panel discussion with Aid for Friends, SEICAA, and the Idaho Foodbank! You will learn about their services, how they help our community members in need, and how YOU can get involved in volunteering and helping out. Come all and enjoy, and also come and enjoy some delicious refreshments!

We will see you there on Wednesday, November 4 at 6:00 PM in the Exploration Center!

Does anyone have an unlocked cell phone they would be willing to donate to a client, to help maintain their stability in their current housing? They have a phone plan but the previous phone was stolen and they are not eligible for another free phone right now.

If so, please come to the Aid For Friends administrative office at 214 E. Center, Suite 50 (we are right next to the Center Street underpass in the SICOG building) and ask for Jessica, or call 208-232-0178 x103. We will have to check to make sure it's compatible with their current plan. All donations are tax-deductible.

Thank you!!

Tomorrow (Thursday, October 8) at NOON, Karl and Mike from Valley Mission will begin sitting outside on a bench for 24 hours! They're there to have conversations with community members about homelessness. Stop by and say hello, and ask them questions that have been on your mind.

Two weeks from today, Karl and Mike will sit on a bench for 24 hours straight having dozens of real, unscripted, hard conversations.

Before that day arrives, would you pray?

🙏 For Karl and Mike’s health and endurance
🙏 That nothing interrupts the conversations
🙏 That our Pocatello comes to see homelessness with more humanity and hope
🙏 That God is glorified through every story shared on that bench
Thank you. These prayers matter more than you know. 💙
