1. The War On Compassion
A presentation by the Silver City Gospel Mission
An equal opportunity provider

2. What Is The War On Compassion?
● 33 cities in America have either banned or are
considering banning feeding homeless people
● Four municipalities have recently gone as far as to fine,
remove or threaten to throw in jail private groups that
work to serve food to the needy instead of letting
government-run services do the job
● Essentially, they’re designed to make being homeless
within city limits so unpleasant that the downtrodden
have no choice but to leave

3. What Is Homelessness?
More than one official definition
Government Definition and the one we go by:
A homeless person is an individual without permanent
housing who may live on the streets; stay in a shelter,
mission, single room occupancy facilities, abandoned
building or vehicle; or in any other unstable or non-
permanent situation.
[Section 330 of the Public Health Service Act]

5. Causes Of Homelessness
● poverty
● lack of employment
● lack of affordable housing
● addictions and substance abuse
● deinstitutionalization of the mentally ill
● impoverished and runaway children
● disabilities
● illness

6. Causes Of Homelessness
● discharged veterans
● domestic violence
● social exclusion because of sexual
orientation
● prison release
● forced eviction
● mortgage foreclosures
● choice

8. When You Are Homeless Some Of The Things We Normally
Take For Granted Become Important
When you have ...
● No place to live
● No place to secure your belongings
● Not much room to carry your valuables
Simple things can make a big difference!

9. Problems The Homeless Face
● medical problems
● personal security, quiet, and privacy, especially for
sleeping
● safekeeping of bedding, clothing and possessions, which
may have to be carried at all times
● lack of hygiene and sanitary facilities
● cleaning and drying of clothes
● obtaining, preparing and storing food in quantities
● keeping contacts, without a permanent location or
mailing address
● hostility and legal powers against urban vagrancy

10. Problems The Homeless Face
● Reduced access to health care and dental services
● Limited access to education
● Increased risk of suffering from violence and abuse.
● General rejection or discrimination from other people
● Loss of usual relationships with the mainstream
● Not being seen as suitable for employment
● Reduced access to banking services
● Victimization by private crimes

11. ~ Candace, Homeless Widow
“I left my abusive daughter’s house and
here I am", said Candace. "I've never
been homeless in my life, but I finally
have a safe place to stay and I feel at
peace, at least for now."

13. Homeless Girl
“Two things happened when I turned 12, my Father who used to beat the hell
out of us left home and the other thing that happened is I started using drugs…
One of my friends said ‘Here try this it will make you feel better’, and it did.
When I turned 13, my Mom found a new partner who lived at home with us. He
raped me regularly and abused my younger sisters as well. I was only 13.

14. Should I Give Money To A Panhandler?
● Politely refuse them money and refer them to the Gospel
Mission
● We have plenty of support services around town for
their true needs
● If you feel moved to do so, chat with them and see what
they need
● If you feel guilty about it, give money to your favorite
charity
● Carry service support cards, homeless care kits in your
car or a bus ticket to give them

15. Should I Give Money To A Panhandler?
● If they crowd you or continue to ask for money it is
considered aggressive
● Panhandling is not against the law in Silver City
● Aggressive panhandling is
● Snap a photo of them with your cell phone (if you can
without risk)
● Go into the nearest store and let the clerk know you are
being bothered and to please call the police
● Wait for the police to arrive and file a report

17. Poverty In Grant County
● New Mexico poverty guidelines listed on the Human
Services Dept Website
● Family of four who makes less than $1,963 per month is
considered to be in 100% poverty
● 1 in 6 people in Grant County miss one or more meals
every day which is considered food insecure (about 19%
in poverty)
● In 2011 we had 4,700 people in Grant County who were
considered food insecure
● $2.70 is the average cost of a meal

18. Who Are The People In Poverty?
● The working poor-those usually
earning less than $10/hr
● Seniors on fixed incomes
● People on disability incomes
● Teenager homelessness

20. NIMBY
● ‘Not in my backyard’
● Cities are designing programs to
make being homeless within city
limits so unpleasant that the
downtrodden have no choice but to
leave

21. What Does The Future Hold?
● If we want to see how the Government will treat everyone in the future, all
you have to do is look at how the homeless are being “dealt with.”
● Random groups feeding the homeless in various venues is a great example
of decentralized compassion
● Political power hates decentralization and is quite intentionally trying to
corral the homeless into the centralized bureaucratic channels over which
it has total control
● So this isn’t merely a humanitarian issue, it is also a front line battle in the
key war of our time: Decentralization vs. Centralization

Questions?

24. Silver City’s Working Poor -
Is It Their Fault?
(and should we help them?)
A presentation by the Silver City
Gospel Mission
An equal opportunity provider

25. ~ A Question?
● Should you help the poor?

27. Some People Think That...
Many of the people we help
simply need to get a job, get
off their behinds and start
providing for their families

28. Truth
Many of the hungry we see have jobs
but are paid so little and things cost so
much, they cannot provide for their
basic needs-These people, for
demographic purposes, are called the
‘Working Poor’

30. Who Are The Working Poor?
The working poor
● cook burgers
● deliver pizzas
● fold shirts
● help people pick out shoes
● cut grass
● answer phones
● take care of children and the elderly
● Earn $10 per hour or less

32. Are They All Teenagers?
Low-wage workers are mostly adults,
not teenagers. Few receive health
insurance or other employee benefits,
and the government often subsidizes
their wages, providing them with food
stamps and other benefits

33. Fact
Many of the working poor are too
proud to take Government benefits
even if they do qualify

35. The Benefits Cliff
When a person gets a raise and no
longer qualifies for government
benefits, but they actually lose money
because the raise wasn't enough to
make up for the benefits lost

36. Makes Us Ask...
If you're in a system where you get
offered a raise from your boss and you
get punished for taking it, what does
that say about the incentive to work?

37. Living Conditions Of The Working Poor
● Working through pure hell for next to
nothing
● Still wishing you could work more hours
● Know you’re lucky to have a job, no matter
how bad it is
● Live in constant fear that you might lose
what you do have

38. Is The American Dream Dead
● Jesus said the poor will always be with us
● The 80/20 Rule also shows us that we will
always have a smaller upper class
● Stats show that more of the middle class are
dropping into the working poor
● If not dead, the escalator is stuck

40. So Is It Their Fault?
● Life happens
● Most of us have limitations to overcome
● Cost of goods and services continues to rise
● Many employers are cutting hours
● Some people take advantage of the system
and can do better, but they might need help
in other areas

41. Solutions?
● No easy answers
● Earn more (raise minimum wage?, raise
educational levels, more and better jobs,
longer hours)
● Spend less (decrease costs of goods and
services, learn to spend wisely,more
benefits?)

42. Should We Help?
● It’s the neighborly thing to do
● It’s the moral thing to do
● It keeps resources in our area
● It’s not a sin to be poor
● Who are we to judge?
● Giving directly to the poor forces us to actually interact
with humankind, with the people God wants us to be
with!

43. God Has A Heart For The Poor
The Bible is full of verses about helping the
poor
And he answered them, “Whoever has two
tunics is to share with him who has none, and
whoever has food is to do likewise.”
~ Luke 3:11
~ Luke 3:11

44. Some Unimpressive Ways To Give
● With a big frown on your face
● Giving back to those who've given you things
● Showing others that you're giving
Our good deeds should be motivated by a sincere
desire to help others, to let our light shine

46. Each Of Us Has Something To Offer
● We can give our money and our time to charity
● Be a friend to someone who is sick or lonely
● Do volunteer work
● Be a peacemaker, teacher or minister
● Give unselfishly of our time to our spouse, children or
parents
● Choose a service-oriented occupation
● Do our everyday jobs with integrity and respect for
others

47. It would seem that the more we give to others, the poorer
we become, but just the opposite is true!
Service to others brings meaning and fulfillment to our lives
in a way that wealth, power, possessions and self-centered
pursuits can never match.
As Jesus said,
For if you give, you will get! Your gift will return to you in full and overflowing
measure, pressed down, shaken together to make room for more, and running
over. Whatever measure you use to give -- large or small -- will be used to
measure what is given back to you." (TLB, Luke 6:38)

49. Those who would seek to draw near to Christ,
will find themselves near to the poor
● We care about the poor because God commands it and
has promised judgment for those who disregard the cry
of the poor
● We care about the poor because Jesus cares about the
poor
● We care about the poor because we were
commissioned by Jesus to preach, heal and deliver
those in distress

50. ~ Mother Teresa
“Stay where you are. Find your own Calcutta. Find the sick,
the suffering, and the lonely right there where you are — in
your own homes and in your own families, in your
workplaces and in your schools. You can find Calcutta all
over the world, if you have the eyes to see. Everywhere,
wherever you go, you find people who are unwanted,
unloved, uncared for, just rejected by society — completely
forgotten, completely left alone.”

52. Thank You!

108. ~ Mentally Ill Vet
When he showed up on our doorstep Carl was on his last legs. Suffering from depression and
schizophrenia, with nowhere to go and no family to help him.
He’d come in every morning and get his coffee and sit in the background watching the classes being
taught or the food being prepared. Every once in a while he would mumble something to himself or
break out in loud laughter.
Though difficult at times, we learned a little more about Carl and his life. We weren’t able to help him

streets for a time.

142. A Poem
Water soaks through shredded news
That’s wrapped around a hungry heart
And as I walk in heelless shoes
I wonder forth around the park.
The nights are cold and days are long
My mind replay’s where I went wrong
And rain will soak and wash my tears
Where strength resolves to show no fear.
And last nights meal was found in bins
Of salad tossed in throw out things
And smokes are found upon the floor
The stubbed out tabs I barter for.
My callused hands and grubby nails
Grip plastic bags that hold my life
And heelless shoes pace endless trails
That tread beyond this bitter plight.

143. Thank You!
