The Archdiocese of San Francisco supports overnight shelters, food pantries, soup kitchens, substance abuse programs; all they ask is that the homeless don't piss on the doors and leave human waste, trash and needles at the entrances.
So if they guy refuses to go to the shelter, then what does Jesus do? Pin his arms back and frog-march him to the van? Take him, to the shelter against his will? Do you think that would be humane, legal, or even Christlike?
What would you do if people were camping out in front of your door, using illegal drugs n front of your kids, and urinating and defecating on your front steps?
Leave him alone, and certainly not dump cold water on him.
By the way, glad to see you on the road to recovery.

Do what the Kenyan anti-Christ does to people who get in the way: Drone him.

Damn, taking all the fun out of being homeless!
I'm sure many Catholic churches do that, but this one spent a lot of money to install a plumbing system with timers, avoiding the required permits, and deliberately avoided putting up warning signs, to dump masses of water onto the homeless and their sleeping materials and winter gear.
They evidently didn't hear what you think Jesus would have said, evidently a little evil crept into their hearts.
