Homelessness Sunday, 28 January

Date Added: Tuesday 23rd January 2007
Homelessness Sunday, 28 January

Bloxham youth group, SoulShaper, from St Mary’s Church, have gone one step further than exploring the issue of homelessness, with first-hand experience of losing four walls and a bed for the night.

Sleeping in a field at the local school farm they were able to retreat to a gazebo when the heavens opened, later agreeing it must be far worse to be cold, lonely and hungry with nowhere to go.

The group will use their reflections on the night in the Homelessness Sunday service on 28 January. For more information about Homelessness Sunday and the service, call The Homelessness Sunday Partnership on  020 7723 7273.or see the web site. The theme this year is No Home – No Justice.
