A Child’s Letter to a Homeless Shelter and The Residents' Response




When asked, the clients at the Raleigh Rescue Mission responded to my students with some heartfelt and wise advice, straight from life experience:

Stay in school

Be a leader, not a follower

Don’t do drugs

Be yourself (meaning not trying to fit in & get involved with the wrong people)

Love your neighbor

Be good to one another


That’s right. We can all learn from each other and help each other. That’s the biggest lesson of all. Class dismissed.
