The Salvation Army Englewood Red Shield Center located on 69th and Morgan is run by Captain Nikki and Lt. Corey Hughes and I invited Captain Nikki to join me on the prepare podcast. Some of the best research you can do on a topic is actually having a conversation with someone that knows the situation and experience firsthand. I hope this conversation opens your eyes a bit wider and softens your heart to a neighborhood that God is at work in among people that he desperately loves. Here’s my conversation with Captain Nikki.
This month, I meet with Pilar Dunning. Pilar has been a trainer on human trafficking and dynamics for 10 years, and has experience providing direct service to survivors of human trafficking. She’s been passionate about social justice and global missions since her first experience in missions through the Central territory’s Summer Mission Team program for young adults back in 2002. She’s been a social worker for 11 years, and has worked in various settings including: child welfare, children's hospital social work, older adults, and anti-trafficking.
This month Sarah sits down with Captain Lisa Barnes, a Salvation Army officer from the Western Territory of the United States. You’re going to not only enjoy this conversation with Lisa because she’s witty and funny, but also because her story of redemption is rich and full of grace and mercy – you can’t help but say praise God and thank you Jesus throughout the episode.
