created the R esurrection S ub­
stance Abuse program in 1993 out
o f the need to address the epi­

Not Enough." Participants work at
sobriety while also restoring their
person to the fullness of God's cre­
ation.

special meals on the holidays, like
Easter, so those who are homeless
or in need have an opportunity to
enjoy a meal and some fellowship.
Many who are homeless would oth­
erwise spend Easter alone," said Bill
