Homelessness is a big problem in Birmingham and Reach Out Network is tackling it.

It's quite an eye opener to join them on the streets giving out soup and sandwiches, chatting and praying with some of the rough sleepers. 

It’s just wonderful how they create a safe place in which people are very happy to open up. 

Rather than expecting people to come to them Paul – as some outreaches like this do – and his team walk around the city centre and know many of the places that rough sleepers gather.As the team ventures out into the city centre a couple of nights a week people are fed and conversations about Jesus sparked off very naturally.
