Bringing the Kids Home
There are no words to express the motherly gratitude shown by Elmer upon seeing her son again. His mother was pleased with his progress and highly appreciated Roberta's help. Elmer's mother thanked Roberta for her assistance with tears in her eyes when they first met. It's safe to assume that she was pleased to learn that the presence of Roberta enriched Elmer's life and that he was fortunate to have someone who cared so much about him. What's more, though, is that there's more to come!
Assisting People Who Are Struggling
The story doesn't end there; there's still one more twist to come. About a year after their initial meeting, Elmer's life had taken a dramatic turn for the better. He was no longer on the streets; instead, he was a member of Roberta's board of directors and he owned his own home. Since they had both made such remarkable progress and turned their lives around, they felt compelled to help others who were similarly in a hopeless situation as they had been. Do you really think that?
