Group provide compassion and care for a decade
An outreach who provide a safe refuge to many will celebrate a decade of offering care and compassion to those in need.
Broken Chains will mark their tenth anniversary with a service of thanksgiving this Friday evening.
The charity is a Christian organisation, supported by many churches within Ayr and the surrounding area, and draws volunteers from Ayr, Prestwick, Troon and further afield.
Their main goal is to provide a safe refuge for substance abusers, addicts and the homeless.
And the good news of the gospel is central to all Broken Chains does, with many over the years coming to find their own personal faith in Jesus Christ.
Spiritual Care and Support Worker Charles Kingsman previously told the Post this week: “It’s very much about personal care.
“If they don’t have food – we feed them. “If they don’t have electricity – we top up their funds. If they don’t have a home – we take them to the housing service.
“We are an outreach and here to help.” Broken Chains hosts a drop in session on Tuesdays, providing food, hot drinks, games and bible discussions in a social environment.
Their Sunday service is tailored more towards a church atmosphere with live praise and worship, a speaker, testimonies of changed lives, followed by a free meal from 3.30 - 4pm.
The service of thanksgiving will be held in Holy Trinity Church ( 25 Fullarton Street, Ayr) on Friday, January 17 at 7pm.
An open invitation is given to all who wish to attend and hear some of the work Broken Chains has been doing - and the difference its work has made to many lives in the community..
