Pastor spends 20th consecutive year with homeless

Pastor Eric Johns of the Buffalo Dream Center is once again living on the streets with the homeless to raise awareness and money for the center's, "Boxes of Love" program.

BUFFALO, NY — A Buffalo pastor is continuing his tradition of giving everything up to bring attention to those in need.

Pastor Eric Johns of the Buffalo Dream Center is once again living on the streets with the homeless to raise awareness and money for the center's, "Boxes of Love" program.

And his two teenage sons Alexander and Nate are out there with him.

"I've talked to several married couples that choose to be out on the street rather than in shelters so that they aren't split up and ah...one have to go to a men's shelter one have to go to women's. So ah... it definitely um, makes you think about things a little differently when you have some young people with you," said Pastor Johns.

Alexander and Nate say even though it's a little cold sleeping outside they like meeting people they wouldn't otherwise get a chance to interact with.
