And now without further ado, Elby Lisbil proudly presents, FACE of the Homeless!

We will begin introducing you to one of five individuals in this fictitious story's there dilemma and the problems they shall face and encounter due to their unique situations being homeless, this story is written emphasizing the Christian perspective to these particular situations the resources currently available to the homeless and one many of them are not or simply cannot be utilized.

On the concept of ladies first, we will begin with the first three female characters before the male characters are introduced into each story, each one of these individuals all five have a particular problem in addition to being homeless that will be characterized the first of which is in this story.

We begin with the first female character I will call, " Alisha, she is from small-town USA at the age of nineteen with a Christian upbringing against the wishes of her parents she engages in premarital sexual contact with a teenage boy her own age, the result of her unprotected premarital sexual encounters resulting in her teenage pregnancy.

Her male sex partner presumes to assume no responsibility for her pregnancy insisting that their relationship was not monogamous despite the fact that it had been, she having not used any contraceptive device during their sexual relations after having missed her monthly period she buys an inexpensive pregnancy tester the results which verifying her fears that in fact the result of her premarital sex was pregnancy.

Arriving in the city we shall call Chicago stepping off the bus and walking into the station with but one hundred dollars love to her name and some change she buys a newspaper sitting there reading the various help wanted ads, listed within it and further seeking out inexpensive housing with a pen from her purse and a piece of paper she begins writing down information derived from the newspaper planning out what she is going to do where she will work and live.

As she is setting their in the bus terminal looking over the newspaper she is approached by a security officer assigned to the bus terminal, he demands to see her ticket stub then telling her that she had reached her final destination and that she could no longer loiter around the terminal.

He points out a sign clearly posted above all the access doors that reads, No loitering, claiming her baggage she makes her way out of the bus terminal not having any comprehension of where to go or what direction to tremble as she is walking down the busy
