“The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’" -Matthew 25:40

We once again have a great opportunity to serve Jesus through serving our neighbors at Safe Space Winter Shelter. Safe Space provides emergency overnight shelter rotating through churches during the coldest months of the winter. They are a first- come, first-serve shelter but prioritize those with extreme vulnerability, putting them at too great a risk to sleep outside.

The shelter opens on December 21 st at First Baptist and runs through March 1. Faith Lutheran will host Safe Space from January 18-31 this year. There are many ways to support Safe Space:


Greatest Gift Supplies: In January we will be collecting supplies through our Greatest Gifts program. If you would like to contribute, please bring any of the following supplies to the cradle in front of the alter on any Sunday in January:
