Pastor Peterson Mingo, CHRC Street Outreach Worker mentioned in Senator Rob Portman's Weekly Column

"Peterson Mingo grew up in Cincinnati as one of twenty-six children. He served his country in the Marines and has gone on to serve his community in many ways. In addition to his work at Christ Temple Baptist Church in Evanston, he is a stalwart volunteer. In 1993, Pastor Mingo started the Evanston Youth Athletic Association and continues to be a champion for bettering the lives of youth in the Cincinnati area.  Pastor Mingo is also a board member of the Coalition for a Drug Free Greater Cincinnati, a group I started to help prevent substance abuse from spreading throughout southwest Ohio. He continues to be an inspiration to me and many others."
