    Jessie Hale Downs lived a life of quiet strength, deep faith, and unwavering compassion. At age 27, along

    Jimmie died just months after the Mission opened. Even though Mrs. Jessie was expecting their first child,
    she was determined to keep Jimmie’s dream alive, and she continued the Mission by herself for ten years. In
    all, Mrs. Jessie served the Mission for an incredible 46 years!

    Matthew 7:7-8 (NIV) tells us: “Ask and it will be given to you; seek

    one who knocks, the door will be opened.” Joey knows that signs
    of God are all around us. He is living proof that no matter the time
    or place, God will let you know what He desires for your life.
