Homelessness goes deeper than not having a place to lay your head at night, and solving the problem of homelessness goes deeper than simply providing hot meals or houses. Make sure to SUBSCRIBE to get great Catholic content each week!

In this video, we see how one man was called by Christ to sufferwith the homeless and how that has transformed his own life and the lives of so many in Austin, TX. Alan Graham, Founder of Mobile Loaves and Fishes, had his sights set on money and worldly success when the Lord turned his world upside down at a Christ Renews His Parish retreat. From that moment on, he dedicated his life to serving the poor in Austin, Tx.

Homelessness is a chronic problem, and the goal of Mobile Loaves and Fishes is to connect the richest of the rich to the poorest of the poor to create community and help lift people out of poverty.

MORE ABOUT THIS EPISODE

In this video, Alan Graham shares his conversion story and how he started Mobile Loaves and Fishes, an organization that serves the poor. The poor need more than food, they need community, they need compassion. Catholic Social Teaching is more than working at soup kitchens. Serving the poor is our responsibility as Christians. Christ instructs us to love and serve the poor. We see the dignity of every human life.
