So the winter shelter in this community is a "nomadic" model - which means every night it goes to a different church and they feed and house the 20 to 30 men and women who need shelter.
We have done it twice now - and it has gone well. The first time another church prepared the food - and Don put on a movie on the chapel big screen and it was a quiet night. The secondnight, we prepared the food - nachos deluxe grande mucho - and did the same thing.
Addison and Don are the ones who have been elected to spend the night with the men - along with the HH employees - and it's been a good chance to talk with the men, learn their stories, and be able to share hope with them.
We don't do it again until next year. Too bad - it's what the Army should be doing on a regular basis.
