Pictured above is the revised sketch of our emergency shelter plans. This is a scaled down version of the original model presented. This new model gives us an opportunity to speed up the time frame for a permanent shelter to help the homeless. This model has less square footage, will save money, and still accomplish our core objectives resulting in getting people back on their feet.
Much progress has been made toward our Capital Campaign goal. So far, these gifts have brought us close to the halfway mark of purchasing our first piece of property. If you have yet to give, we still need you to do so. Every gift counts. Keep praying and keep moving forward.
Coldest Nights winter shelter will start November 15, and end March 15, 2021. This season’s most notable changes in shelter include safety protocols for our guest, and to be open every night this season. Laundry will certainly be our biggest need this year. Anyone wishing to be on a team or form your own team, contact me by texting Ed at: 615-605-1705 and let me know your availability.
The Parade of Partners fundraiser, featuring Christian Comedian Peppi Garrett, has been rescheduled for February 18, 2021. We are looking forward to having a great time and hopefully bring some exciting updates as well. Please mark your calendars and plan to be a part of this event.
