Review for Mission in Citrus Inc, Crystal River, FL, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

the mission is a great place to re-unite families. I am residing here now for the folowing reasons i had gotten into a dispute with my father and it didnt go so well. Life at my house which is located in springhill wasnt going so well. i lived there with my father and step mother. my father and i used to be so close but now ever since he aquired a new wife he's changed dramatically. i used to be able to talk to him about everything , but now i cant even ask him how his day is without something going wrong in the middle of our conversation , bottom line my relationship with my father has been askew. once i moved to a "homeless shelter" called the Mission in Citrus my life began to fufill. the people around here have shown me love like i was their own child and the love only gets stronger. day by day they help me if i am in need of something. we get along more than my father and step mom every could. we do not fight we do not argue i find it here what some intellectuals call peacfull. life here is more comforting than at my own home. then there is jim the director what a great sociable person. he helped my mother get through her hard times and took her in to help her get back on her feet. now she has a job and is working on getting her own place. jim is currently helping me get re-united with my mother. i lost contact with her for some time. i was very upset at the fact that i couldnt talk to my own mother. my mother has five kids. one is distant in new york. i am the third oldest making me 16 years of age. my two little sisters who i love dearly come on some weekends and they get to see us and i have a good time with them. they love jim. everyone who comes here has no reason to dislike him. he is a straight foward man and will go out of his way to help anyone who wants to help themselves. he has a big heart and nothing can change that. we like to think of everyone as family. we grew close to each other over the two months that i have been here. i love everyone here and they love me just as much if not more . the mission in cirtus is the best thing that could happen to me during a hard time. theirs delva... what a great lady i like to think of her as my sister she is always thinking of me and helping me through some hard times that i dont like to discuss with most. we hangout and go to the springs occasionally. their is also two men that live here their names are lee and wally. they are father figures to me and they are just out there looking out for me , trying to keep me on the right track. they will go out of their way to make me comfortable and feel at home.jay jay... this kid has been a brother to me since i have been here. he has just graduated yesterday and im so proud of him. we like to go to the springs and hangout to catch a tan. all i have to say about this is thank you everyone for all your help and support.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

a loving capacity

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

ask for the help from the County.
