At
this time of crisis, leaders of churches, faith communities, and advocates for
homes for the homeless will gather to pray and share food at a “Spring Fest”
at Sanctuary of Sarasota at 1005 North Washington Blvd, behind Dealer’s
Choice at noon on Saturday, March 15th.
The City of Sarasota has issued a notice to
vacate the homeless camp which Trinity Without Borders provides support
services. Vallerie Guillory, from Trinity without Borders, said: “ It’s a given
that the camp has to be closed, we need funding released so people can have
homes not a place on the floor.”
At
noon, representatives from Mary Mother of Jesus Inclusive Catholic Community,
St. Andrew United Church of Christ , Trinity Baptist Church of Newton, Vision
House, Cares Outreach and other supporters will form a prayer circle to pray for
a just and compassionate resolution to the homeless camp closures in which the
homeless will be provided adequate food, housing, and other necessary
services.
