SAMARITAN HOUSE CHRIS KRAGER TRT: 15:40 HOMELESS VETERANS HOUSING/
Wes Wilburn welcomes listeners to a deeply meaningful episode featuring a crucial conversation with Matt Milazzo, senior manager at the Tunnel to Towers Foundation. Born and raised in Staten Island with a family dedicated to public service, Matt shares how the foundation's mission to eradicate veteran homelessness resonates with his personal values and professional aspirations.The heart of this episode centers on the foundation's innovative approach to combating veteran homelessness through strategically located Veterans Villages—renovated hotels transformed into supportive housing communities. Matt explains their two-pronged strategy: providing immediate housing through these villages while simultaneously addressing the root causes of homelessness through personalized support services. Since late 2022, they've already helped over 10,000 veterans transition off the streets. These villages aren't just shelters; they're comprehensive rehabilitation centers strategically positioned near VA facilities to ensure ongoing medical support.A critical need emerges during their discussion—transportation. The foundation urgently requires wheelchair-accessible passenger vans to transport veterans to medical appointments and other essential services. This presents a unique opportunity for the towing and recovery industry to make a tangible difference. Wes passionately calls on listeners to donate suitable vans or salvageable accessibility equipment, pledging his personal assistance in coordinating transportation to wherever the foundation needs these vehicles nationwide. Beyond vehicle donations, Matt details additional ways to support their mission, including their symbolic $11 monthly donation program and various fundraising opportunities.The episode concludes with Towing News Now, highlighting recent industry developments including Chicago's efforts to combat predatory towing practices, controversial vehicle removal operations in California, and sobering reminders of the dangers tow operators face. These stories underscore why initiatives like the Tunnel to Towers partnership matter—they demonstrate how an industry often misunderstood by the public can be a powerful force for good in communities across America.Ready to make a difference? Contact the Tunnel to Towers Foundation at 718-987-1931 or visit t2t.org to learn how you can support their mission to ensure no veteran remains homeless.

Join us as we speak with experts who are leading the charge, using creativity and cooperation to tackle some of the toughest issues facing our veterans today.

Happy 4th from The Mark Howley Show! We decided to offer this special episode on Independence Day to acknowledge the veterans, military, civic duty officers, police, fire and all members that help protect and serve this country and all they have endured. This special features Jaime Martinez, a retired combat medic and recovering addict working with Summit, the largest behavioral health corporation in the US. He travels all over Arizona and the country to find and identify veterans that need drug and alcohol treatment as well as mental health support.

He says this is what makes him so good at his job. What an honor to hear your story, Jaime and thank you for your service. Jaime strongly encourages any veteran struggling to reach out from ANYWHERE, ANYTIME, ANYDAY and promises to get you in touch with a VA officer in your area to assist you. Please contact him Jaime.martinez@canyonvista.com If you or anyone you know is struggling with substance abuse, Mark welcomes a conversation for guidance or support.

It's Thanksgiving, Thursday, November 23rd, A.D. 2023. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark Indian pastor released from prison Here's some news to be thankful for. A pastor in India was released from prison recently after facing false charges of forced conversions. Last month, officials raided a house church in the Uttar Pradesh State and arrested Pastor Chotelal. He has been ministering in his village for over 30 years under constant pressure from authorities. Commenting on his time in prison, the pastor said, “I met eight other Christians who were being held for the same reasons, and it was a great time to extend mutual encouragement and counsel to one another. I was also able to witness to inmates of other faith backgrounds and give them Bibles.” Please pray for persecuted brothers and sisters in Christ in India, ranked 11th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of nations where it is most difficult to be a Christian. Psalm 146:8 says the Lord "executes justice for the oppressed. … The LORD gives freedom to the prisoners. The LORD opens the eyes of the blind; the LORD raises those who are bowed down; the LORD loves the righteous.” Anti-Christian hate crimes on rise in Europe Meanwhile in Europe, anti-Christian hate crimes are on the rise, according to a new report by the Observatory on Intolerance and Discrimination Against Christians in Europe. Last year, Christians suffered 748 incidents across 30 European countries, up from 519 incidents in 2021. Arson attacks on church buildings increased in particular last year. Hate speech laws in various countries have also been leveled against Christians in Europe. The research group's director, Anja Hoffmann, noted, “In our legal analysis we found that the criminalization of the expression of Christian doctrine on controversial issues was one of the main reasons why Christians were stigmatized and prosecuted.” Four-day pause in Israel-Hamas War On Tuesday, Israel and Hamas, the Muslim terrorist group, agreed to a four-day pause in fighting that began on October 7. The plan involves Hamas releasing 50 hostages – including women and children -- from Gaza and Israel releasing 150 Palestinians from prison. The deal also allows humanitarian aid and fuel into Gaza. The pause in fighting comes after weeks of negotiating by the U.S. and Qatar. Georgia officials apologized for curtailing man's religious liberty In the U.S., a city in the state of Georgia has apologized for arresting a man who held a religious sign in public. Two years ago, the city of Port Wentworth arrested Jeff Gray. He was holding a sign that read “God bless the Homeless Vets” in front of the city hall. Gray finally reached a settlement of over $5,000 this week. The settlement goes to Gray as well as the National Coalition for Homeless Veterans and the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression. Gray said, “I'm thankful for the outcome here, but I won't stop speaking out on behalf of myself and my fellow citizens.” Pro-abortion terrorist pled guilty to firebombing pro-life office On Monday, an abortion activist plead guilty to firebombing a pro-life group's office. Authorities arrested Hridindu Sankar Roychowdhury earlier in March after a grand jury indicted him. This comes over a year after he vandalized the Wisconsin Family Action office with words like “If abortions aren't safe, then you aren't either.” Roychowdhury could face up to 20 years in prison. The attack was one of hundreds that took place last year against churches and pro-life groups. 8.000 soldiers, whom the Army fired over COVID-shot refusal, might get some justice As it faces recruitment struggles, the U.S. Army is now trying to bring back soldiers who were discharged for refusing COVID-19 shots. A recent letter from the Army to former soldiers noted, “former Soldiers who were involuntarily separated for refusal to receive the COVID-19 vaccination may request a correction of their military records.” The military COVID-shot mandate was in place from August 2021 to January 2023. The U.S. Armed Forces discharged over 8,000 troops for refusing the shot. The military also denied thousands of religious exemption requests from the shot. Since the shot policy ended, only 43 discharged service members have sought to return. 67% of Americans thank God at Thanksgiving And finally, Lifeway Research reports that 67% of Americans say they give thanks to God at Thanksgiving. Lifeway notes that statistics from YouVersion's Bible app show Scripture readers spend more time in the Psalms at this time of year. Over the past five years, the most frequently read verses around Thanksgiving come from Psalms followed by 1 John, Numbers, Proverbs, and Hebrews. The most popular Scripture overall during Thanksgiving was Psalm 100:4-5: “Enter His gates with thanksgiving, and His courts with praise! Give thanks to Him; bless His name! For the LORD is good; His steadfast love endures forever, and His faithfulness to all generations.” Close And that's The Worldview in 5 Minutes on this Thanksgiving, Thursday, November 23rd in the year of our Lord 2023.
