Men’s Shelter Laundry Time

Laundry bagIt's time to do laundry!

One of the great things about this ministry is that there is something for everyone!  We have men who host throughout the night (sign up at the Ministry Counter to Host a time period), others who do set up and greeting, and still others who cook and serve breakfast (also sign up at the Ministry Counter to participate)!

Now there is an opportunity to do laundry!  Simply pick up a bag or two from the corner of the cafe, wash the linens, and return them to Life Bridge by Thursday evening.   Thanks for you help and for blessing those with need.
