Homeless and the Superbowl

What is Tampa doing to prepare for the Superbowl? They are "cleaning up" the streets by housing the homeless in their local jails for the weekend according to this article in Change.org. It makes me wonder how things went this summer for the Republican National Convention in St. Paul. Be sure to read some of the comments people have made following this article to find out how other cities around the world have prepared for large international events where there would be major media coverage. Then, continue the discussion on homelessness in your church. Homelessness is on the rise as the world economy still spins and goes down the drain. Silence does no good, talk is a first step, action is what is needed!
