The theme of this Friday's Diocesan Convention - Do Good and Share What You Have - invites us to listen to the needs of our neighbors and give of ourselves to help share their load. Community Alliance for the Homeless (CAFTA), a 501c3 serving Memphis and Shelby County, does just that in their commitment to ending long-term homelessness and ensuring that future homelessness is rare, brief, and one-time. On this week's Faithfully Memphis, join Emily Austin for a discussion with CAFTA team members Errin Woods, Julie Meiman, and Kirsten Hipkins about the changing nature of housing insecurity and chronic homelessness in Memphis, and about what people of faith can do to help.
