Arizona church offers food, encouragement to homeless

Every Friday evening, the empty parking lot of St. Matthew Catholic Church in Phoenix, Arizona, comes alive as members of Centro Cristiano de Alabanza y Adoracion arrive to offer food, encouragement and prayer to the homeless, Arizona Portraits reported.

Pastor Enrique Borja hopes to expand the ministry. “There are a lot of people sleeping behind the freeway,” he said. “We want to go to those places. We can do a little more. I hope we can do better.”
