Hi imJames Hanson Hungry For God Home took me off the streets over four years ago and gave me a safe place to sleep and get my life redirected. Pastor Larry took me in like a son and helped me get job training in weilding, carpentry, landscaping and enrolled in college and now working as a full time carpenters assistant. I love this ministry to the at risk youth of Austin.
