too cold to be outside, let alone sleep there.

Some friends of mine from North Church are doing a project with the homeless in OKC over the next couple days. Rodney Fouts decided to become homeless for 3 days in order to get a better understanding of what life is like for the homeless in Oklahoma City.
The temperature last night was in the teens and I was told the City Rescue Mission was expecting 200-300 more people than usual to be using their facilities. I spent maybe 30 minutes in the cold shooting video footage from the project and even with my layer upon layer of clothing, I couldn't feel my fingers and my face went numb. I can't imagine not having a place to sleep at night, especially in these conditions.
Kudos to those who are working with the homeless. Send them money.
