I’ve yet to find someone who wakes up one morning and say’s I want to be Homeless, Alcoholic, or a Junkie”.

I feel that the Holy Spirit guides me every day on my journey.  I make an effort to connect with the homeless, vulnerable community, offering them support and kindness

I go out as often as I can speaking to the community. Telling them about the miracles God can do! I say to them,

“If God can do it for me he can do it for you too, you have to mean it from the bottom of your heart, But if you ask Jesus Will Save You Too! “

“What have you got to lose?”

I make an effort to assist many members of the local homeless community. I provide them with a hot drink with a pasty or sandwich whenever I can. In addition to meeting their needs I also share the message of Jesus with them. My hope is that through this they will find comfort and strength in faith. I believe that becoming Christian can bring positive changes to their lives and help them in their struggles.

“I believe there’s almost always a reason for someone’s life demise”

In the heart of our bustling city, I often find myself crossing paths with individuals whose lives tell stories of struggle, resilience, and hope. Each encounter has not only opened my eyes to the realities of life on the streets but has also deepened my own journey of faith as a born-again Christian.

Here’s a small selection of back stories of some of the individuals I come across on the streets.

For safety, I have chosen to keep their identities completely anonymous. By not revealing identities, we create a safer environment for everyone involved.  If others learn their identities, it could threaten their safety and allow for unwanted attention, which must be avoided at all costs.
