- my home base community is Vineyard of Shoreline... i am one of the worship leaders there and help with creative stuff & social justice stuff;
Nickelsville is a community of non-housed, outdoor peeps who live in tents and have become great friends to us. We hang with them weekly...along with Dustin Cross I act somewhat as a chaplain, but mostly as a prophetic bard, bringing the story through song; Our vision is to be able to spend more time on the streets with all of our outdoor friends, living life alongside in unconditional love, and mentoring others to do so as well... all the while abolishing divisions, promoting equality, seeking reconciliation and restoring dignity through companionship.
The Park Pub is where i generate income and have built relationships with numerous patrons... there i pour drinks and have a weekly random discussion where I try to completely change the pre-conceived ideas about Christ and help restore and heal through counseling conversations addressing the negative 'Christian' and/or religious experiences had, both from individuals and from the 'church' as an institution.
