Gospel Con Carne host Alan Graham always loves to say that “behind every great woman, there’s just a man.” This is your opportunity to meet that great woman in Alan’s life, his wife Tricia Graham, who has faithfully been by his side for nearly four decades. Tricia is the Director of Resident Care for Mobile Loaves & Fishes, and oversees the organization’s daily engagement with the formerly homeless men and women who live in Community First! Village. She describes the recent several weeks of dealing with the COVID-19 crisis as an extraordinarily unsettling moment, but one through which she has continued to have a sense of peace knowing that—just like other difficult seasons of life—this, too, will soon pass.

Everything we do at Mobile Loaves & Fishes is about relationships and connecting with other individuals human to human, heart to heart. So as you can imagine, in this unprecedented time of social distancing due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our organization faces a challenging dynamic as we seek to continue growing community and building relationships with our friends who have experienced homelessness. In this episode of the Gospel Con Carne, you’ll hear from Amber Fogarty, MLF’s president and chief goodness officer, as she and Alan discuss the organization’s response to the global crisis, how it has impacted our day-to-day operations, and why it’s important that we all lean on faith as we navigate the coronavirus storm.
