Valentine's Day is the perfect day to take a moment to reach out to someone important to you. Tell someone they are loved, they are valued and they are appreciated. They could be a partner, a lover, a friend, a parent, a colleague. Let them know.

@Waysidepastor on @2GB873 with @BenFordhamLive discussing, as new cost of living numbers emerge, the impacts they are having on Sydney’s homeless population and the influx of new faces seeking assistance.

Pocock slams system where it's 'easier to buy your second house than your first one' – video https://t.co/7QCnBy9kCE

'It’s also a by-product of how we’ve come to treat housing as a country: less as a fundamental human right, as something that everyone in our community should be able to afford, and more as a wealth creation vehicle.'

In the last quarter, we've seen almost a doubling of people seeking food, basic amenities like toiletries, socks and underwear, and emergency support, especially housing.

Life around us flourishes when we find ourselves as necessary, significant but not central to it all. There is power in that, which seems like a paradox. There’s an unfulfilled promise in our nation’s story, a gap in our shared history.

[Wayside Chapel - Kings Cross & Bondi @Wayside1964]

In just 3 days on Saturday 14 October we have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to take a step towards a more compassionate and equitable future.

For over 65,000 years, the First Peoples of Australia have maintained an unbroken connection to this land, its stories and its spirit.

I would suggest that life is a series of hits and misses. Sometimes, all it takes is a momentary lapse, a brief disconnect, to throw us off course. Yet often a simple moment of awareness is all that is required to realign us with our true path. Read on👇

[Jon Owen @Waysidepastor]

Most Australians recognise that generations of government policies have failed our First Nations peoples. The parliament hasn't made progress on closing the gap for well over a decade. It's clear the status quo can't continue.

[Jon Owen @Waysidepastor]

Politicians and bureaucrats haven't been the change we need. The voice referendum? It's our collective opportunity as Australians to be that difference.

#City2Surf run and done in support of @Wayside1964 What a treat to run with my 14-year old niece - she burned me in the last kilometre!

[Jon Owen @Waysidepastor]

We are small but mighty Wayside Team and so grateful for bringing their best and making our City2Surf dreams come true. Couldn't be prouder of all who ran, supported and made the day possible! My legs are about to fall off!

[Jon Owen @Waysidepastor]

Spent some time with my superstar Josh who has emerged from dark times in the past, and after experiencing firsthand the unconditional love that Wayside has to offer, decided to give back by running in the C2S. You can get inspired by his stories here: https://t.co/YENHhHNtUa

Very much looking forward to hosting this and dispelling so much of the misinformation around the Voice.
