“It’s been exciting to see the Rivers of Gateway project coming to life in the old Hamblin Community Center! Rollin and Laura’s vision of weaving the building back into the community by making it a fun, safe place and reaching out to those in need goes hand in hand with their life-long love of Battle Creek. Ideally positioned at the confluence of the Kalamazoo River and Battle Creek. It has a unique opportunity to again be a focal point and meeting place where everyone, and the wider community, can thrive. Rollin and Laura’s deep involvement in their church and their professional backgrounds, which require empathy and tenacity, are the partners that can usher in this historic building’s resurgence.”

They have a heart for working to support those who need help in raising themselves to accomplish goals necessary's to better their lives. I have watched them both pour out their time, their care, their love and their talents to our community. I have also been a witness to their tenacious spirit to accomplish the task or goal they have set before them and they do accomplish the with diligence and focus. They continually work to serve in community support. I encourage you to be a part and support your community through this great project."

“Lori and Rollin Mains choose worthy goals and pursue them well. This reclamation project has both physical and spiritual meaning, and Lori and Rollin are outstanding in both areas. They possess the abilities to set lofty objectives and to achieve them. They are both practical and prayerful, and they do Gods will with determination and finesse. Investing in the mission to connect the under-served of Gods children to the many resources of this community in a safe and attractive environment is both noble and possible. Lori and Rollin will make it happen with our help.”
