This place is definitely kingdom minded. They are always practicing the principles of Christ found in Matthew chapter 25. They provide showers, clothing, hygiene, bus passes, food baskets, and meals to the homeless and low income people Monday thru Saturday. Meal times are breakfast at 9 am and lunch at 12 noon. There is a TV room and court yard where you can kick back in a safe environment with security guards to keep it a peaceful place. They open their gates around 6:30 am and you can stay watch TV fellowship charge your media devices and just enjoy the company of others and get out of the heat, rain, cold and chaos of life on the streets. They also allow people to receive mail at their address so t they have a safe place to receive social security checks, packages or what ever. They will assist you to find resources for housing, food, and many other needs. If they don't provide it they will help you with finding who does provide those resources. They also have a thrift store and give vouchers to those who need items for a new home after being homeless, clothing free of charge for those who are in need. They operate on donations. If you're not needing their services and are looking to help those who are they are always willing to except donations of clothing, hygiene, and household items that are able to be used by the thrift store and newly rehoused homeless people.
