WENDY’S WINDOW: Hope for the Holidays
Issues such as homelessness, poverty and lack of resources for low income and less fortunate individuals is increasing daily. For America to be one of the richest countries on the earth it is a shame the alarming rate that hunger, homelessness and poverty are growing. Although the Bible tells us the poor will be with us always, there are still ways we can help the situation. The US Department of Housing and Urban Development reports there are over half a million homeless people in the United States and the official poverty rate is around 12 percent. An estimated 40 million Americans live in poverty. They all deserve hope for the coming holidays and every day.
