Every Wednesday night our last stop of the night is at a street corner that we named Terry’s corner. On that corner we would visit with a man named Terry. Everyone who met him loved him. His smile always lit up that corner. Tonight we learned about a shooting of a 60 year old man at a gas station near that corner. That man was later identified as Terry. Our hearts are heavy over this. And words cannot fully express how deeply he is already missed. Please keep the Jackson Street Ministry family in your prayers. And the people on that corner who knew and loved Terry as much as we do.
“The LORD is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.”-Psalm 34:18

So why is the street ministry mourning a rapist? Rapists are pure evil.
@1:27 The guy was convicted of rape 34 years ago. There is a thing called rehabilitation, or even redemption if that is your religious nomenclature of choice. What a sad, miserable world you must live in.
The same redemption you would accord Judge Moore in Alabama? Just asking.
I'm sure you'd post a murder victim's criminal history if he were white.
I do all the time, numbskull.
@Bill Harvey. One is a murder victim and one is running for the United States senate. I suppose that's not really the difference that you're concerned with.
@2:15. No I don't live a sad life. I was raped at 17 and will never believe anyone who rapes can be rehabilitated. They just learn how to pretend to be a normal person.
