We now serve approximately ninety to one hundred chronically homeless men and women outdoors on a weekly basis. Approximately two thirds are men. Ages range from sixteen to eighty. The younger homeless people have often recently run away from home, and come from varied ethnic and economic backgrounds. This population is highly transient and changes almost daily, especially during the summer. The older homeless people have usually been on the street in Cambridge for an extended period of time and are uniformly impoverished and in poor health. Almost all of the people we encounter are substance abusers, mentally unstable or - particularly men - both. Altogether, the Outdoor Church has reached as many as 240 homeless men and women and provided them with pastoral services, including prayer, meals and clothing.
