Cedarville Magazine, Fall 2014

Cedarville grad Michael Bouchard ’06 is a bridge between two worlds. On Sundays, he’s the Kids and Family Discipleship Director at Kensington Church in Lake Orion, Michigan, north of Detroit. The rest of the week he’s “Pastor Mike,” fellow resident of Orion Lakes Mobile Home Community, where he’s lived since 2011. He didn’t need a spaceship tomove from one world to the other — just some heavy machinery. “A lot of people didn’t know the trailer park existed,” Bouchard said, I remember hearing yelling and screaming and the police being on my street almost every night. I remember seeing one of my friends removed from his home by children’s services. Trailer Park Ministry Connects Cedarville Grad’s Past to His Present by Clem Boyd Cedarville Magazine | 11
