Bennie Deese
Manager of Security / Facility Maintenance
For most of my life I have found myself working with and helping people on many levels . I feel that It ’ s one of my callings , as well as , a passion of mine to reach out to or minister to the hurting , the helpless , or wherever I can lend a helping hand . Here in the Central Florida community , I have worked or served as a pastor , associate pastor , security officer , and supporter of , not only my children but other young people , as they displayed their gifts , talents , and skills in athletics as well as the “ arts ”. As an employee of the Rescue Outreach Mission , I feel that my purpose here is to say or do whatever I can to lift spirits , counsel , and encourage those who come my way ; no matter what position they may hold , as we work collectively to render services to those who have a need in our community .
