Service Opportunities Love Bags: Families
You and your family/friends can be paired up with a family currently living in The Shepherd's Way emergency shelter called Paul's Place. By becoming a friend and a mentor to this family, your relationship develops the needed "community" required to break the cycle of homelessness. You would bring a meal to the family on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of each month and simply meet with them for one hour from 7 p.m. - 8 p.m to "break bread" together, listen and get to know each other.
