Barton Barber
Terri Kippen and Becky Galer come and provide free haircuts from 9:30-2:30 to anyone that is in need of one, appointments can be made ahead or some stop by the day of just to try their luck and see if we have time. Paula a friend of the mission has been so gracious as to wash hair and book appointments for us so we can accommodate that may more people now.
It is all done in a true salon atmosphere complete with snacks and never ending conversation. Since this program started in September 2011 it has increasingly gotten busier and busier. We have been blessed by the relationships that have been made through the Barton Barber program. God works in wonderful and amazing ways to bless those in need, this program is no exception!

The Barton Barber in Pictures...
The Spirit of God, the Master, is on me
because God anointed me.
He sent me to preach good news to the poor,
heal the heartbroken,
Announce freedom to all captives,
pardon all prisoners.
God sent me to announce the year of his grace
To care for the needs of all who mourn,
give them bouquets of roses instead of ashes,
Messages of joy instead of news of doom,
a praising heart instead of a weak spirit.
– Isaiah 61:1-3 (The Message)
