| Easy Pitch Fan about the Homeless !You have not a clue to the circumstances that lead people to a rescue mission. PERIOD .
I'm envolved thru faith with a Gospel mission.
I also hope someday to retire and serve with maybe a vo tech type program to help them re - enter.
Like most of the general public view's about the homeless, the person has never sat and listened to the those that the absolute bottom has fallen out of their lives. Close to bilical hell as it can get without death / and that happens also, no - family - behind a dumpster.
Most individual's would rather be served than to serve.
Self alway's comes 1st in our society. Vanity.
All walks of life, Enginners " New one personally who's famose !" Doctors, Educator's , Business owners, Vet's, Women, with very young young chidren.
Adults and children, Cold, Sick, and Animal hungry due to terrible event's that occur in their live's. Worse yet they been so totally defeated that they see no light - We try to reach out through FAITH which you cannot see or touch.
Presently trying to raise capital for a new facility due to a forced move that was not our doing. It's very tough struggle to raise the needed capital do to the general public attitude to the homeless. Dang tough cause were on a dead line. Dang tough because of vanity attitudes.
Next time you see a dirty, cold and wet sick person, or a car of kids some who could be sick, sleeping behind a building. Ask them if they want to get warm,take a hot shower, eat, lay down on something soft, get some sleep, some clean things to wear, and maybe hear a bit of the gospel, and if nesscesarry we will help them get well.
We have people that work 7 day's a week, but walk to work, can't afford 400.00 Mo rent, still can't afford doctors so they work sick or in pain, a treat is a drive thru burger or even a piece of candy or even a pair of shoes.
Sorry about the soap box guy's - but it's a raw nerve. When it comes to integrity - I've got one who spend s the day picking can's, he donates it ALL to the local cancer center and he does pretty well.
One who cleans, I would eat a meal off any of his floors or behind the stool ! Look out for your fellow brothers, someday it just might be someone you know.
