On Saturday morning, Aranda was overwhelmed with those memories as she walked around the old Wayward Winds Lodge on Miracle Mile, which is on Tucson’s near north side. She was there as part of a volunteer crew that’s helping the local nonprofit, Christian-based Gospel Rescue Mission convert the old motel into a new shelter for women and children.
The $3 million project will double the capacity of the Gospel Rescue Mission’s current shelter for women and children and will triple its size. When it’s finished, it’s expected to house up to 100 women and children.
And those shelter beds are much-needed, say Gospel Rescue Mission leaders, whose records show they are turning away anywhere from five to 25 women and children each day due to a lack of space.
“It’s really actually in good condition for an old motel. But it needs to be updated and cleaned — thoroughly cleaned,” said Suzanne Williams, director of the Gospel Rescue Mission’s community ministries.
Miracle Mile is a stretch of road that has a long-held reputation for seedy motels frequented by prostitutes and as a haven for crime.

By the sweat of your face you shall eat bread, till you return to the ground, for out of it  you were taken; for you are dust, and to dust you shall return.
Gen 3:19 (ESV)
However, remember that the pair was also charged to work while living IN the Garden:
The LORD God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep it. Gen 2:15 (ESV)
The only difference between working in and out of the Garden was the direct presence of God.  God, being a Holy Creator, cannot co-exist with sinful man, so the sinful man was put out into the world to toil apart from the Mighty God’s presence.
Enter Jesus, fully God and fully man, who lovingly walked upon the earth and co-existed with tax collectors, prostitutes, and lepers.  Through the death and resurrection of Jesus, He dwells inside of each believer, and we can once again toil in His presence.

TUCSON (KOLD) – Tucson police say Wednesday night’s intensely beefed-up police patrols along Grant Road were part of a new program, aimed at taking a proactive approach to address problems in specific parts of town.
On Wednesday, 75 officers saturated a three-mile stretch of Grant, between Campbell and Craycroft.  Police say the corridor is seeing a trend in crime and traffic problems.
“Narcotics activity, traffic enforcement issues,” explained Sgt. Fabian Pacheco, with the Tucson Police Department.  “And some other quality of life issues such as prostitution and different things we’re concerned with and need to deal with.”
During their one-night stepped-up deployment, police officers issued nearly 400 citations for various traffic violations, made more than fifty arrests (including one felony arrest), and addressed dozens more issues in the area.
Tucson police hope to conduct these beefed-up deployments once a month, in different neighborhoods.
