Christ-Centered Ministries (CCM) hosted one of Southern California's largest Thanksgiving celebrations on November 21, 2025, serving nearly 1,000 guests experiencing homelessness and food insecurity with a freshly cooked meal and holistic support services at its Inglewood headquarters. The event was emotionally significant as it marked the full return of founder Pastor Troy Vaughn and his wife, Pastor Darlene Vaughn, who personally led the serving line alongside Inglewood Mayor James Butts and faith leaders like Pastor Charles Blake II of West Angeles Church. Meals were prepared by CCM's culinary social enterprise, Manna Feast Catering Services, with support from a broad coalition of nearly 800 community partners, demonstrating CCM's mission to facilitate long-lasting restoration through housing, employment resources, mental health support, and spiritual care.

This short article, "The Hood Motivator” Returns to Say Thank You, highlights Dr. JayR McIntyre's journey of transformation and his deep respect for Pastor Troy Vaughn of Christ-Centered Ministries (CCM). McIntyre, known as "The Hood Motivator," served at a recent CCM event alongside Pastor Vaughn, an experience that brought his life full circle. Dr. McIntyre recounted seeing Pastor Vaughn on Skid Row when he was a grieving young boy and feeling a sense of leadership, safety, and the possibility of a future from Vaughn's presence. Decades later, McIntyre, now a respected community leader nearing the completion of his doctorate, returned to serve under the man whose early, unconscious influence helped shape his resilience.
