There are 7 churches (all from different denominations), each with their night of the week from Nov. - April. We feed them and give them a warm night...same idea as what you are doing. It has been very powerful for our church, being involved with this ministry. We have noticed an increase in numbers this past year due to the economic times. Despite what is read in the media, there are many kind, generous and caring people left in society, but sadly, there are too many who need them.<br /><br />Keep up your good work in Toronto, where the needs are so great. It not only takes a village to raise a child, but it takes a village to care for those who can't care for themselves.Alisonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5373083364102062158.post-30525673475197140712010-01-03T22:00:38.780-05:002010-01-03T22:00:38.780-05:00Carla, thank you for sharing this story.

It's wonderful to hear about someone who does more than just "talk the talk."<br /><br />I can't see or hear about a homeless person without thinking that once, they were someone's sweet child. That person is still there, somewhere deep inside, and they deserve our respect and compassion.<br /><br />I recently read about the owner of the El Mocambo, and how in the wee hours of the morning, after the bar has closed, he drives the streets of Toronto distributing food, clothing and blankets to the homeless.<br /><br />Thank goodness for people like the both of you.Linda Gallant Pottshttp://gallantpotts.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5373083364102062158.post-81360945831785327322010-01-03T10:46:41.930-05:002010-01-03T10:46:41.930-05:00What a wonderful ministry to be involved with, Car...What a wonderful ministry to be involved with, Carla.
