Don ’ t forget that there are Stoplight Packs available at the Missions Table in the Connections Hallway . Feel free to take one for your family to have on hand to pass out to our homeless neighbors ! It is called a “ Stoplight Pack ” but don ’ t let that stop your family or you from purposefully going to a homeless person , share the pack and have a conversation . One the greatest ways we can help folks might be to remind him or her that he or she is still a human worthy of dignity and love !
