A few weekes ago, I went over to Holy Ground Homeless Shelter in Hudson Florida with a sister in Christ-Joy. The shelter really needs help there. Lisa Barabas-Henry the owner of the shelter has taken ill for a long time and the shelter which houses about 45 people right now is in dire need of supplies and donations. A child even lives there and my heart goes out to this little one, because the shelter is in a depressed state. They have a chapel and a thrift store, yet they seem overwhelmed.
Many years ago, when I lived in the woods I had gone to this shelter and they were kind to me. Unfortunately, having a cat, I was unable to have residency at the tidy Holy Ground.
Today though, life has changed dramatically as illness and depression can create sad situations in any family. Holy Ground is unable to get Goverment Grants because they pray on the property. This really upsets me because I thought that we had the right to pray. This institution helps feed, clothe and house thousands of homeless through the years.
This shelter does not only need donations and food, but they also need simple items as toliet paper, cleaners, disenfectants, hand soaps, laundry detergent. Holy Ground does not have a website, yet if you do a search, you will see what they have been going through. All you have to do is do a search on Holy Ground "Hudson, Florida".
Here is the address if you wish to give a donation. If you want a tax deduction please just send a self addressed stamped envelope and ask them and they will write you out one.
Here is the address:

God Bless you for reading this.
This just stays on my heart and they need so much help. Many homeless are our Vets. Many are also families. They need our help.
