The mission of Faces of Santa Ana is to lovingly engage the homeless through art. In July 2015, Brian Peterson and his wife had just moved to Santa Ana, California with a burning desire in their hearts to love their neighbors. Outside the couple's fourth-floor apartment, a(n)1 man was often yelling on the street corner, sometimes keeping them 2 at night. Peterson, 28, would pass the guy on his way to work as a car designer, but they never 3 .
One day, Peterson was relaxing in his living room, reading the book Love Does, about the power of love in action, when his 4 disturbed by the homeless man.5 by the book's compassionate (有同情心的) message, Peterson made a(n)6 decision: He was going outside to introduce himself.
In that first 7 , Peterson learned that the man's name was Matt Faris. He'd moved to Southern California to pursue a career 8 , but he soon fell on hard times and 9 living on the street for more than a decade.

Peterson's 14 with Faris led him to form Faces of Santa Ana, a nonprofit organization focused on 15 and painting portraits of members of the community who are unhoused. Peterson sells the 30-by-40-inch canvas(画布)-signed by both subject and artist-for a few thousand dollars, and put half into what he calls a "love account"for his.16 .
Many of Peterson's new friends use the donations to secure immediate 17 -medical care, hotel rooms, food. Faris used the funds from his portrait to record an album, realizing his 18 dreams.
Peterson has painted 41 of these portraits himself. He's discovered that the buyers tend to connect to the story of the person in the painting, finding 19 and often friendship with someone they might have otherwise overlooked. "People often tell me, 'I was the one that would cross the street. But I see homeless people 20 now, " Peterson says. "I didn't know that would happen. "
