Dear Friend --
We hope this email finds you and your loved ones safe and
healthy.
Today, we want to share with you the inspirational work of CLUE's
Faith-Rooted Organizer, Pastor Cue JnMarie.
Every Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday, Pastor Cue and other
grassroots organizers provide food and masks for some of our most
vulnerable, unhoused neighbors in Downtown Los Angeles.
Though Governor Newsom has
opened 15,000 hotel rooms to shelter the homeless during COVID19,
only three
percent of the state's 150,000 unhoused people have been moved to
hotel rooms.
Last week, Pastor Cue was
interviewed in The
Final Call about this crisis, noting that the infrastructure
is just not in place to move tens of thousands of unhoused
Californian's into hotels. He also stated that, "It is partly the
prayers of the community and the grassroots effort to work and try to
keep people clean that we haven’t had more cases in Skid Row. I really
believe that.”
In times of great crisis, it is acts of abundant love that will see
us through. Thank you for walking on this journey with us.

work, check
