Vice President

Sarah Gurule, Sales at Modern Glass Company: We take pride in our work and that’s why we use Original Equipment Manufactured (OEM) parts, factory primers and urethane. Using top quality parts provides more than brand new windshields and car windows…it provides safety for you and your passengers. Auto glass is laminated safety glass which is made with a thin layer of flexible clear plastic film in between two outer layers of glass. Have you ever noticed a car’s windshield after an accident? Many times, the windshield is cracked but not actually broken due to the plastic film. The plastic film holds the glass in place and actually stretches during impact!

Dennis McCarthy Lazarus House

Lazarus House, a gospel-based ministry, first opened its doors in 1983 as a five bed emergency shelter for the homeless. As needs continued to grow, our services expanded in order to better serve the needs of our brothers and sisters and those of the community.

Lazarus House now provides a continuum of services to people who are in dire need of life’s most basic necessities, and our mission is to see the “face of Jesus” in all people we have the privilege to serve.

We help to prevent homelessness by providing food orders from our food pantry for those who cannot afford to pay both the rent and buy food. If that fails, we provide shelter. All of our guests are assigned an advocate who will assist them with a tailored plan for reconstructing their lives in a way that will allow them to be active and productive members of the community.

We provide free medical and dental services. A pre-school room affords our guests the ability to keep appointments and interviews for jobs, housing and social services without having their children accompany them. It also enables them to focus on their needs and gives their children the opportunity to be just that-children. Our job-training program offers an extensive learning environment where English classes, life skills and job training skills are taught. After completion of their classroom studies, our students begin a seven-month paid work internship at our cleaning company. Contact Me
