Winter Shelter

Every summer homeless men from the Lexington area apply to participate in our program. Applicants are screened and approximately 24 men are invited to attend. Those 24 men are divided into two separate groups.  The first group starts the first Sunday in November and the second group begins in December. Participating congregations pick up the guests and transport them to their facilities, where they are greeted with a warm meal and a safe place to sleep for the evening. The following morning, guests receive breakfast and are transported back downtown. Through this process, relationships are formed and lives are changed – not just the guests, everyone involved! 

NEED SHELTER?

We will do our best to accommodate everyone who needs a place to stay. However, space is limited and we may  need  to provide information about alternative  shelter programs.
