LOCAL MEN’S GROUP AIDS FORMER MARINE
Sgt. Michael McKinney to receive fast-and-furious-style car from local men’s ministry
LAWRENCEVILLE, GEORGIA, UNITED STATES, October 11, 2013 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Pastor Jim Crumbley, an associate pastor of C3 Church Atlanta, and the men of the Manhood Resurrected Ministry, an outreach program for men in Lawrenceville, GA, will be gifting former Marine Sgt. Michael McKinney with a custom car on Sunday, October 20th, 2013.Sgt. McKinney served in the Marines until 2008. He returned home and joined the National Guard as a Combat Medic. Sgt. McKinney moved his family to Winder, Ga. from Ohio after his unit was called for deployment.
“The recent government sequester has delayed Sgt. McKinney’s deployment and now he is here [in Georgia] with limited resources, two bad cars, three kids and little familial support,” explains Jim Crumbley, a former Marine turned associate pastor for C3 Church Atlanta. “The guy is a hard worker. He just needs a hand.”
Sgt. McKinney currently works for an Atlanta hospital to support his wife and three children. Pastor Crumbley hopes the gift of a new car will help ease the burden of halted plans and missing income caused by the current government shutdown.
“We're just reaching out into the community to soldiers and veterans who have served our country bravely and need our support here at home,” Crumbley continues. “We are looking for an older SUV, such as Toyota 4Runner or Nissan Pathfinder. We are going to paint it up, fix it up, and present it to him on Sunday morning.”
All funds for the purchase of the vehicle and needed customizations and restoration work have been funded by community donations. For more information on Sgt. McKinney or how you can help contribute to this gift, please contact Pastor Jim Crumbley at jimcrumbley@gmail.com.
