Homeless people are those who don’t
have adequate housing. Millions of people in our country are suffering from
this issue. This is not something new. It is a social problem that most of the
population is aware about. It’s time that we take action in order to solve this
issue.
Imagine it’s December around the holidays.
You are spending quality time with your family inside a warm and toasty home.
Outside of the window, you can see snow slowly beginning to fall. Your mom brings
out her famous hot chocolate, while relaxing on the couch. Now you have to
think that everyone isn’t as lucky as you. What about those people who live out
in the streets? How are they protecting themselves from the freezing weather?
I strongly believe that this
country has many people who are narcissistic. All they care about is themselves.
We need to drastically make a change. This is why I am very proud and content
with what churches are doing. Churches are beginning to open their doors during
the winter for the people who live out in the streets. Being out in freezing
temperatures is very dangerous. There are very high chances that homeless
people can suffer from hyperthermia. Not only are they providing a place where
to stay for the night, but also a hot meal. For some of those people, that’s
the only meal they will have for the entire day. The Church should continue
their commitment to them. I’m pretty certain that they appreciate it.
I agree with this article. A few weeks back I wrote a paper for my english class on the food stamp program and if you think about it plenty of people think that people who are homeless are so due to their own fault when in reality a large percentage of the homeless population have a job, the job is just insufficient. Most of it has to deal with the extremely low minimum wage in our country.
ReplyDeleteI think this is a great social action that begins with a higher power. Most people look down on homeless people, but in reality, we have no idea why they have become homeless, and truthfully, I don't think it is anyone's business. It is great to help others, and I hope the church continues their services.
