What do you do when God says no and you can’t see the rest of His plan? In this episode, I interview Clarence Keesman, the Executive Director of The Refuge. He shares the story of their journey to provide affordable housing for the youth in the Durham region. Applying for a funding grant and not approved and then getting a 2nd chance.Since 1999, The Refuge has been working with youth who are experiencing homelessness or are at risk of experiencing homelessness, or who are struggling.  More than just a place to find breakfast, lunch, showers, laundry facilities, access to clothing and personal hygiene products, as well as housing help, The Refuge is a place where youth can find community, safety, belonging and a renewed hope for their future.#therefuge #DCBowmanville #whenGodsaysno #whenGodspeaks @refuge_youth_outreach--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/intersection/message
