5 /5 Dawn Rogers: I recently attended Church Under A Bridge, not because I intended to, but because it was there when I arrived... I had intended to take some breakfast sandwiches and talk to some of the local homeless people about God. Boy was I surprised when the whole place was crammed with people, everyone enjoying themselves, singing, preaching, even lunch was served to the homeless. Praise God! Everyone seemed happy, welcome and clean, especially for being homeless. This particular Sunday a nice hot meal was provided. Tyler has done a great job cleaning up what was once the home-less area. People now appear respected, clean, safe and enjoying life again . The entire setup was appreciated by all! Helpers & homeless alike cleaned up & put every-thing in order before they left. Leaving the whole area clean as a whistle. Down the street theres a mission where the homeless can bathe & wash their clothes & nearby, what once were empty buildings, have been converted into small apartments. Some of the homeless have been able to get jobs at the mission. Perhaps, some work at the apartments as well, but thats purely supposition on my part. In any case, this is one city that has handled their homeless situation with flying colors! Now, THATs the way to invest & make it count for something wonderful! BRAVO to Tyler, TX & Church Under A Bridge!
