🌟 Partner of the Year: Dayspring Church 🌟
This year, we are honored to recognize Dayspring Church as Street Patrol’s Partner of the Year.
When we think about what true partnership looks like, we think of consistency, humility, and a willingness to serve wherever there is a need — and that is exactly what Dayspring Church embodies.
🚐 Helping Us Move the Mission Forward
One of the most transformative ways Dayspring Church showed up for Street Patrol was by assisting us in obtaining our new service vehicle. This vehicle is more than transportation — it is mobility, reliability, and increased reach. It allows us to show up more efficiently during street outreach, transport supplies, and continue expanding our impact across the St. Louis region.
Because of their support, we are able to serve with greater stability and presence.
🥪 Boots on the Ground — and Behind the Scenes
Dayspring doesn’t just support from a distance. They come out during street outreach. They serve face-to-face. They help in the background. They prepare lunches. They lift. They carry. They pray. They encourage.
They understand that every role matters.
From packing meals to standing alongside us in outreach locations, their team serves with compassion and consistency.

💛 A Partnership Rooted in Action
At Street Patrol, we believe sustainable change happens through relationship. Dayspring Church has proven that partnership is not about a single event — it’s about long-term commitment.
They don’t just attend outreach.
They don’t just donate.
They don’t just support from afar.
They walk with us.
To Dayspring Church — thank you for believing in this mission. Thank you for helping us secure critical resources. Thank you for making lunches. Thank you for showing up. Thank you for standing in the gap.
We are stronger because of you.

February 2023 Spotlight
Street Patrol has been building relationships with the unhoused community for 9 years. Meet Ret, one of our guitar playing patrons, as he explains what Street Patrol means to him.
Would you mind sharing any situation/life circumstance that led you to meeting Street Patrol?
"I met Street Patrol while I was homeless, living in a vacant warehouse downtown. [I was] going through life's changes, on the rebound [due to] coming home from prison and needing help, aid, and assistance. [I was] losing family, friends, and loved ones [as] hard times were a daily part of living on these streets, through harsh winters and long hot summers. [But] thank God."
What did the support from Street Patrol mean to you?
"When K-D. Cutts and the rest showed up, I received reprieve; help abundantly and [the] spirit of family and friends. They showed up faithfully. And sincerity is a staple and bond that can't be broken, as far as I'm concerned. I'm sure countless more will agree. I am grateful and appreciative of them and very proud of the work they do and how much they care. May God continually bless them on their journey and more and more support and donations come their way. All my love and support to [these] selfless and kind people, my sister and brothers from another mother."
Are there any additional details you want to share?
"[I have known Street Patrol for] 2 years. [They are] very laid back and serious about their work and effort they put into it. It's like a family [because] they go out of their way to accommodate people in the community. I love them, no BS…inspirational, real motivated, no games, integrity, [they] push you, and followed up, never left me hanging.
My first encounter with Street Patrol was and still is one of the best experiences I've had in the last 2 years."
...not everyone has a happy ending
Although Ret has found stable housing, not everyone has a happy ending. We lost another one of beloved patrons on November 30, 2022. We served Rudy for more than 4 years. He was very funny and respectable, and he will be missed dearly.
