Hi everyone! We’ve been super busy delivering meals the past two weeks- the extreme cold has made this more necessary than ever. MIWRC has been operating as an emergency warning shelter for most of the month and we’ve been really fortunate to help keep hot meals available there for people in need.

I’m so proud of how my Minneapolis neighbors are showing up, and how those around the country are empowering us with donations, encouragement and prayers.

Don’t let up! We will win!

This is one of the stories I've tried to convey for a while now:

The Trump administration and its allies have long invoked faith to justify policies, appeal to certain groups, etc.

But the president's religious critics have *also* long been numerous, and increasingly loud.

We delivered pizzas to our unhoused neighbors today to get them a hot lunch on such a cold day (0° with -16° windchill at noon). So fresh they steamed up the windows!

Huge thanks to Marsu Pizza for making this big order happen & thank you everyone who has donated to keep our food outreach going!

One thing that everyone outside of Minneapolis needs to know is how incredibly useless Mayor Frey and Governor Walz have been in light of what we’re facing, and it’s really frustrating to see how many of yall are falling for their sound-byte “solidarity”.

Hello community!

We are asking for more support for this fundraiser. Due to the extreme cold expected to linger in the Twin Cities for the next several days, we are seeing a huge need to help provide hot meals to unhoused people. Please help us continue to support our immigrant businesses!

The reason that Mayor Frey and Governor Walz can’t muster much more than selective outrage is because there’s nothing you can say about ICE that isn’t also true of the Minneapolis Police Department, who both swore allegiance to against pervasive evidence of corruption and rights violations.

Thinking about becoming an ICE chaplain so I can just yell “REPENT!” and “Woe to you evildoers!” at them all day.

Hey folks: we’re supporting South Minneapolis latino-owned businesses and the unhoused at the same time—buying breakfast burritos from local taquerias to distribute to unsheltered folks.

Help us help each other!

Venmo: @ Kevin-nye-3
Cashapp: $Revkev

Please donate and/or signal boost!

Hey all,
I have abt 30 families in South Minneapolis who need grocery support. I’m hoping to raise $3000 to do a big Costco run, but I don’t have Venmo & I don’t have the ability to float it on my credit card. You can verify this need w/ @jchavezmpls.bsky.social. Please let me know if you have ideas

A great year in reading, especially considering I wrote a whole book this year too! 😅

Anyone read any of these? Share your lists too!

I spoke with the Archbishop of Dublin, Peter McVerry, and @kevinmnye.bsky.social to explore how Christmas is so incredibly hard for those who are homeless

At Christmas, a reminder of Ireland’s persistent homelessness crisis
“I know many homeless people who tell me they would love to fall asleep on the first of December and wake up on the first of January. Christmas is the most miserable time for them.”

Still plenty of room on my launch team!

You'll read the book early and get to participate in weekly Zoom meetings with me to discuss and go deeper.

Don't miss this! We'll start in January!

OH NO! You forgot to get that important person a Christmas present!!

Most things won’t ship in time! There’s no time to go to a store!

Fear not! Great news!

“Grace Can Lead Us Home: A Christian Call to End Homelessness” is less than $10, and in most places ships OVERNIGHT.

Christmas saved.

Friends, could you help saving lives go viral?

Me and @izzzzzzyyyyyy.bsky.social are hosting a virtual Narcan training this Saturday at 6:30pm CT. Overdoses spike around the Holidays, and this training empowers anyone to help.

A good Advent lesson comes from the story of Zechariah and Elizabeth.

The lesson, of course, is that men should shut up more so that women can tell us what God is like.

Mary did you know? That God fills the hungry with good things and sends the rich away empty?

Mary knew that. Do we?

When we deny people shelter and basic living, predators will use it as bait.

1 in 5 runaway and homeless youth have experienced trafficking, especially high amongst (but not exclusive to) women.

If you care about human and child trafficking, start caring about homelessness.
