God's Messenger Boy: A Story of Faith in Action for the Homeless

Pete Cunningham, known far and wide as Pastor Pete, founded Green Pastures, a national social enterprise that has helped 10,000 people out of homelessness. In this memoir, Pastor Pete shares the profound work of God in and through his life.

"This is my story," writes Pastor Pete, "the story of a young man who, from being totally anti-God, had a miraculous conversion. God met me and then called me to follow Him with all my heart. I couldn't understand how I could be of any use to the Almighty and All-Powerful God, but then He showed me a Scripture in a book of the Bible I didn't even know existed.

Jeremiah 1:6-7 KJV

Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! behold, I cannot speak:

for I am a child.

But the LORD said unto me, Say not, I am a child:

for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee, and

whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak.

"Then I understood. I was to be God's messenger Boy, I could understand this as that was the job I did when I first went into the Stock Market. This story is all about the message He sent me out with, the Gospel of Truth, in a thousand different ways. It has been a wonderful adventure of relationship with my Heavenly Father and all the wonderful children of God He has connected me to over the last 70 years. I trust as you read how God has used a very ordinary man in His extraordinary plans, you will feel you too can be a 'Messenger Boy' for God. You need nothing but a heart set on Him. He will do the rest."

Every night more than 1500 residents are housed and supported by Green Pastures partners across the UK, and each year hundreds of residents come to faith in Jesus through the ministry.
