Mission
Action: Shelter
Our
Shelter Team consists of our members who have a heartfelt
desire to meet the needs of homeless people in our community.
In meeting the needs of those lacking shelter, these servants
work to provide sufficient housing, food services, clothing,
counseling, and furniture ministry. We invite you to partner
with us in the shelter ministry that best suits your gifts
and your passions.
