How are your plans coming along for Homeless Sunday? We are very excited in the Housing Justice office about all the great things happening next month.

And it's not too late, to get involved! 

Homeless Sunday is an annual opportunity for Christians to come together to listen to what God has to say about homelessness.  With the three themes of Connect, Challenge, and Commit, we invite churches, like-minded groups and individuals across Great Britain to reflect on, and address the problems of, homelessness.

One of the great things we would encourage you to do is pray! 

We have written a prayer for you to use as you prepare for Homeless Sunday or on the day itself. Why not purchase one or more prayer card packs to encourage your church members to pray alongside us?
Whether you're a church leader or a member of a local local church, FREE resources are ready for you to download now.  Indeed, one great way to commit to Homeless Sunday is to help us disseminate resources among churches in your town. For many years now, friends in Rugby have been doing just that, and ordered large numbers of our prayers cards, flyers and posters for distribution.

Please remember that you can also:
  • invite a member of the Housing Justice team to come and speak to your Homeless Sunday service on 24 January - simply email us!
  • find out what your local authority is doing to combat homelessness - simply visit their website and look up the housing section
  • encourage your congregation to commit to tackling homelessness - simply visit a local project, write to local politicians, raise funds
