"Nowhere to Lay His Head: Homelessness and the Gospel" - Jan 12

“Nowhere to Lay His Head: Homelessness and the Gospel” is a presentation in words and images. Matthew is an artist and speaker who travels the Greater Boston area and country. He will preach on January 12 at the 10 AM worship service at Franklin United Methodist Church; after worship, we will have a potluck meal (bring a dish to share, if you can) Matthew's presentation will begin at 11:45 AM. Join us for worship and/or the presentation, either way you are welcome.

Matthew, who spent nearly 10 years on the streets of Boston, uses art to start the conversation about the realities of homelessness and how people of faith can respond. Though he is still homeless, Matthew hasn’t had to sleep outside, nor in a homeless shelter, for over 12 years as he travels the country presenting his art and speaking about homelessness. He has spoken at universities and seminaries across the country including University of Pennsylvania, MIT, the University of California at Berkley, Harvard Divinity School and has been featured on NPR’s Morning Edition and This American Life (Living Without, “Act 3: The Call of the Great Indoors,” September 16, 2011).
