Good Shepherd Mission Shelter and Food Pantry

They are strictly a night shelter not a day shelter.

The Good Shepherd Mission Provides food, clothing, and temporary shelter to indigent locals and transients.

Meals

    Each day of the year hot meals are served free of charge at noon and 6:00 PM. Sunday lunch is served at 1:00 PM.
    All are welcome; however, all are expected to help with clean up (as able).
    Lodgers have breakfast at 6:00 AM.
    We are currently planning total renovations of the kitchen to a fully functional commercial kitchen where interns will be taught the Culinary Arts.  This will empower them for good jobs.  We are accepting funding for this ministry program.

Food Pantry
    Groceries are distributed at the Food Pantry  window Monday Friday from 9:00 AM to 12 PM.
    Vouchers are awarded inside the front entrance of the Mission.
    Client applicants must provide Food Stamp verification and/or other sources of information such as utility bill documentation or letter of introduction from local churches.
    Serving size depends on the number of people in the clients family.

Lodging
Overnight lodging is available for needy travelers or those in local crises.
A stay of up to three nights is the rule with exceptions to be counseled by the Director.
Families and the employees here have longer stays if the situation is productive.
The goal is for a successful transition to self sufficiency.
Lodging may be denied or terminated because of health, safety or security reasons.
Showers, linens, toiletries and clean clothes are available without charge.
No one under the influence of dependency materials may be lodged.
