Yes I agree....sometimes people just need a second chance and a shoulder to lean on. Kindness is the best medicine. Work is a blessing too not just financially but for mental health benefits.!

Xylazine and Fentanyl are killing the homeless by the thousands. My question is: What can I do to get more of it on the street?

Not just in the UDA, but on the whole planet. A dream come true: all living in acceptance and respect of each other. Infinite blessings.

@@omi_god You have a better chance of heat stroke than getting hit by a tornado. I live in Texas I should know.

Don't worry, soon everyone will be homeless!

Good job. Congratulations to you. Appreciate your innovative approach to Good way of doing Good.

why are no kids allowed?

What is the name of the place/business/community? I wish to do a little more research in regards and possibly contact them . As have felt a need to learn more about this.

What percentage of residents move on to bigger and better things?

​@@nobleinthought8019 there are no schools

It’s impossible to Love Christ and hate Christian that’s a contradiction. True Christians are thoses who have the spirit of Christ. 1 John 3:15-17 15 Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.

​​@rufuswims1473 I think they are referring to the judgemental Christians who judge instead of being an example and then sin or mess up themselves in other ways and still think they are saints. It is just a saying to get that point across. At least, that is the way I'm taking it.

While I commend this effort to house the unhoused, The New Testament says that Christians are supposed to open their homes to other believers. That's the actual solution. Banning verbal evangelism (aka proselytizing)? That's not Biblical love. Good works and good words go together to build up others' faith in the Good News of Christ! 1 Peter 3:13-17 - Now, who will want to harm you if you are eager to do good? But even if you suffer for doing what is right, God will reward you for it. So don't be afraid and don't worry. Instead, you must worship Christ as Lord of your life. And if you are asked about your Christian hope, always be ready to explain it. But you must do this in a gentle and respectful way. Keep your conscience clear. Then if people speak evil against you, they will be ashamed when they see what a good life you live because you belong to Christ. Remember, it is better to suffer for doing good, if that is what God wants, than to suffer for doing wrong! 👉 1 Peter 4:9 - Cheerfully share your home with those who need a meal or a place to stay. 1 Peter 4:11 - Are you called to be a speaker? Then speak as though God himself were speaking through you. Are you called to help others? Do it with all the strength and energy that God supplies. Then God will be given glory in everything through Jesus Christ. All glory and power belong to him forever and ever. Amen. 👉 Hebrews 10:24 - Think of ways to encourage one another to outbursts of love and good deeds. Romans 10:9-17 - For if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by confessing with your mouth that you are saved. As the Scriptures tell us, "Anyone who believes in him will not be disappointed." Jew and Gentile are the same in this respect. They all have the same Lord, who generously gives his riches to all who ask for them. For "Anyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." 👉 But how can they call on him to save them unless they believe in him? And how can they believe in him if they have never heard about him? And how can they hear about him unless someone tells them? And how will anyone go and tell them without being sent? That is what the Scriptures mean when they say, "How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!" But not everyone welcomes the Good News, for Isaiah the prophet said, "Lord, who has believed our message?" 👉 Yet faith comes from HEARING this message of good news-the Good News about Christ. Jude 1:20-21 - But you, dear friends, must continue to build your lives on the foundation of your holy faith. And continue to pray as you are directed by the Holy Spirit. Live in such a way that God's love can bless you as you wait for the eternal life that our Lord Jesus Christ in his mercy is going to give you. Ephesians 2:8-10 - God saved you by his special favor when you believed. And you can't take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God's masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so that we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.

@@karenmilligan5597 I agree. But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. (James 1:22 ESV) In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your GOOD WORKS and give glory to your Father who is in heaven. (Matthew 5:16 ESV)

@@rufuswims This man genuinely loves the poor people the way Jesus does. He practices compassion (love in action) the way Jesus does. But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. (James 1:22 ESV)

AMEN.

AMEN

Homelessness could be largely mitigated. Ironically, money and politics get in the way.

Start a non-profit. Become its CEO. Get the government to give you tens of millions of dollars and you will be on your way.

@@recalltolife3478 hahaha!...once the government gives you money, you have to do things THEIR way. Especially a liberal lefty one, which is not compatible with the Word of God! Be careful out their who you align yourself with!

​@@recalltolife3478 There is absolutely NO governmental funding here. This enables the village to flourish without politicians putting their opinion in.

I volunteered there a few years and it is the happiest place to be. Everyone works together making the "real" world look pretty petty and sick.

​​@@debbieolin8153 the video literally says "Travis County has pledged tens of millions of dollars in support.." that's government funding.

❤❤❤❤, God bless

No. The government has tried and continues to pour billions of dollars into a losing effort. Government is not and cannot be the solution to a broken spirit. Only Jesus Christ.

❤❤❤

I love it! ❤😊

I love that Today is openly talking about Christianity, but even more so, that the people are acting out the Bible: “You yourselves are our letter, written on our hearts, known and read by everyone. You show that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts.” ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭3‬:‭2‬-‭3‬ ‭NIV‬‬ ❤

​@@HaloHighlightz❤️❤️❤️

That part!

It's not humanity. It's Christianity. Atheists and agnostics aren't doing this.

@@TulsaSooner1979 It’s not being reported on but plenty of us are active in the volunteer and activism spaces.

AMEN.

I see this comment everywhere on YT, and I agree, but I think we need to be those people we wanna see more of 🙏❤

Because it Won't feed thier globalist agenda of depopulation and economic disaster.

It is the happiest village I was ever in. Everyone has a job, be it in auto service, gardening or creating for a holiday market. It has bus service so residents without vehicles are able to shop or go to employment in Austin.

That's Biblical 🔥 I just heard a pastor Bishop Patrick L. Wooden say that in his Resurrection sermon.

Not biblical we are to preach the gospel to then this is not biblical

@@bibleman7757 In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your GOOD WORKS and give glory to your Father who is in heaven. Matthew 5:16 ESV

@@bibleman7757 JESUS PREACHED THE GOSPEL (WHO WILL INHERIT THE KINGDOM) Matthew 25 v.34) Then the king will say to those on his right, ‘come, you who are blessed by my father, INHERIT THE KINGDOM PREPARED FOR YOU from the foundation of the world. v.35) For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, v.36) I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’ v.40) 'Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’

Words are necessary, faith comes by hearing

I am glad you are getting settled. After you can provide for yourselves then perhaps a child or two….

​@@jdfodio "THAT is my interpretation of Scripture. Fixed that for ya. Btw, ACTIONS SPEAK FAR LOUDER THAN WORDS. What does Scripture say about constant fault finding??? Which impeeds leading by example??

@@jdfodio Amen.

Exactly! I'm not religious and even I agree that this is what Christians should strive to be like.

@@tomboyjessie1352 Jessie, among the last of things you need is religion! We all need Jesus and He loves you with a Godly love and wants you to invite Him into your life for a personal relationship. Nobody loves like Jesus loves.

Such a great translation of St Francis Of Assisi's words, "Preach the Gospel and if u must use words" Love it!!!

Such a great translation of St Francis Of Assisi's words, "Preach the Gospel and if u must use words" Love it!!! Such a fantastic model!!

I'm so sorry to hear this. My heart cries for you. I will pray for them and for you.

@@dianemedina5814 Thank you for your prayers, one Daughter has found a shelter, the other is on her way home to me in Texas. God is Great!

Everyone and everywhere needs to take notes .

Philadelphia, too! Jesus Christ is Lord!

California hates Jesus Christ so they won't

Cali basically denounces religion now, so it will never happen there

Couldn’t have said it better. I’ve also worked at nonprofits and because of that experience I will never donate to most nonprofits. They are inefficient and there’s a lot of waste. No innovation either.

It's scary once you witness it!

Where I live, a guy used his own money to buy several acres on the outskirts of town. He put tiny houses on the land, gave them to homeless people, and the city went in and tore it all down. 😥

@@vegasgirl3538 😥😥

The "homeless" have a purpose without being inside of a house. One purpose: convict the housed to love the unhoused because they could easily be the unhoused ones.
