Homeless become heroes.... Read this inspiring story Richard Gere goes Homeless In New York..... Other Homeless Stories And News |
| Starvation
is not as much an affliction of the body as it is a disease of the
hearts of those whom lack the compassion that Christ has taught
us...... it is humanity’s greatest ailment that only His blood can cure
As great as America’s ability to solve worldwide problems is ... still without the daily counsel of Christ ... most solutions are still buried beneath the pit of self reliance |

last time a global survey was attempted – by the United Nations in 2005
– an estimated 100 million people were homeless worldwide. As many as 1.6 billion people lacked adequate housing Australia
