Sharpe said on any given night in Cullman County , there are 40-60 people without homes . Most are not chronically homeless , but are periodically staying in low income motels , camping in the woods or sleeping in vehicles . He said in one year , 150-260 people in Cullman County will experience homelessness .
According to the Village literature , “ Life on the streets can be a real ‘ rat-race .’ You are always looking over your shoulder and watching your back . Imagine trying to sleep in a place that is uncontrolled , with no walls or doors , never knowing who or what might happen to you .”
Sharpe said the goal of the Village is to be a place of hope and peace . “ When hope is present , anything is possible ,” he said . “ We want the Village to be a place where disciples are made and lives are restored one at a time .” C
