Two years ago, I came to Nashua knowing nobody. I started work, continuing the Rescue Mission’s purpose of building a homeless shelter where the Salvation of Christ is taught, and disciples are made. Daily, God has brought people to serve His cause. Today, I know hundreds, even thousands of people who have played a part is serving Christ and His ministry. Each one has been a champion to the Cause of Christ.
I would like to introduce you to one such champion. Her name is Meg Christian, from Wolfeboro, New Hampshire. Meg’s mother Sue Christian, called the Mission, and told me she had a seventeen-year-old daughter who had written a book, and gotten it published. Meg wanted to give the proceeds from her book to the homeless, but ran into a problem. Wolfeboro, being a resort town, doesn’t have a lot going on with or for the homeless. In the course of searching the Internet for organizations that help the homeless, they found our web-site. They liked what they saw, and decided they wanted to donate the proceeds from the sales of Meg’s book to the Southern New Hampshire Rescue Mission. (This was one of those Ding! Ding! Ding! moments. Because, just days before she called, Pastor Ron Gann, of Bridgeway Christian Church, had put up our new web-site with our new logo. WOW!)
It turns out that Meg’s father is the pastor of First Christian Church of Wolfeboro. The Mission was invited to Wolfeboro to present our ministry to the church. The resulting outpouring of love, support, donors, and volunteers has been incredible. I am reminded of how a little boy came to Jesus with a few loaves of bread and a couple of fish and fed thousands.
In an effort to help Meg stimulate sales, we teamed up to speak at Londonderry Christian Church. That was where I first heard her motivation for wanting to help the poor and the homeless. She told of being raised in a godly family in a beautiful resort town where they did not know poverty. When she was fourteen-years-old, a trip to Italy changed that. While exploring the streets of Rome, Meg saw the poor and homeless up close and personal for the first time. She told how she saw a long line of men in front of a building, squatting down with cans in front of them, begging for money. All the cans were empty, except for the last man at the end. He had a dog, and a sign that read: PLEASE FEED MY DOG. That man’s can was full, and this really bothered her. How could people care more about a stinkin’ dog than all the other poor men begging for help?
Meg told God that she would write a book, and she would give all the proceeds to the needy. Meg has written two books on her way to completing a trilogy called “The Last Rawl”. It is a fantasy thriller with a salvation theme. She has committed the proceeds of her sales to the Southern New Hampshire Rescue Mission. 
Not only is Meg a published author, she is also an accomplished musician and vocalist. Meg Christian is currently studying the Bible and music at a Christian college.
