Concerned for the homeless? Want to help in a real way?

David from Ohauiti

CONCERNED FOR THE HOMELESS IN TAURANGA?

I know a homeless Maori family of 6 who have been struggling for about a year to find a house to rent and who currently sleep in tents in the park.

Like us, you may have a house with two or three spare bedrooms, but are concerned that if you let a family move in until they can find a more permanent place to rent, it could be a very long wait, and you are just not willing to make that kind of commitment.

Perhaps, if you were part of a group of 4 or 5 people or more who were willing to take turns for 2-4 weeks housing a family such as that above, you would be able to express your concern for the homeless in a really significant way.

Please contact me, David Kidd, at churchofgodslove4@gmail.com or 02041283124 if you would like to come to a meeting discussing this idea, and then possibly being part of it.

WINTERS COMING, so please get back to me ASAP, so we can soon bring good news to a family, hopefully the one I mentioned above.
