SERVICE: Shelter House

We're going to be the first volunteer group at the new Katherine K. Hanley Family Shelter! We'll be serving dinner this Friday to several families and possibly helping them out in other ways too!

The mission of Shelter House is to provide temporary emergency housing and supportive services to homeless families in order to enable them to transition to permanent housing and a stable family life. For more info on Shelter House, check out http://www.shelterhouse.org/

We'll meet at the Crosspoint Student Minsitry house (4601 Roberts Rd.) on Friday, September 7, 2007 at 4:30 PM to carpool to the shelter, and we should be back on campus by 7:45 PM. To get to the Crosspoint Student Ministry house:

  1. Walk through Presidents Park and back behind Jackson Hall
  2. Follow the gravel road to Roberts Rd.
  3. Cross the street and the white house there to your right is the one.
  4. Find me by my tan Explorer in the lot there. (It's about a 5 minute walk from SUB II.)

If you have questions or want an address/directions to meet us there, email GMULutherans [at] bbuss.com
