A Year-End Wrap-Up with Rev. David Lima [TOWNSQUARE SUNDAY]

New Bedford continued to see its share of homelessness, drug addiction, and crime in 2019. Reverend David Lima works on these issues every day as the Executive Minister of the Interchurch Council of Greater New Bedford. He and others recently returned from a conference in Washington, where they discussed the progress being made in New Bedford in battling the opioid crisis.

Rev. Lima visits Townsquare Sunday this week to discuss the conference, the ups and downs of 2019, and his hopes for New Bedford in 2020. The interview can be heard here:
