The weather is changing, and one thing is for sure. For many people who are homeless or living with little resources, the winter can be uncomfortable or painful. Las Cruces Gospel Rescue Mission is in need of blankets, coats (all sizes for all ages), gloves and hats. The mission gives out blankets and coats at the shelter to people who choose to "camp out" and at the Clothing Room, 1416 S. Solano for families and individuals in need. If you would like to donate a warm item, please drop it by the mission 1050 W. Amador anytime or the Clothing Room, 1416 S. Solano on Monday, Wednesday, or Friday from 9-11 AM or Wednesday from 3-5. You can also provide warmth to people who are homeless by donating and shopping at the Gospel Thrift Store, 1420 S. Solano! It's a great little store where you can find so many things you didn't know could exist and great clothing at a great price. All profit from sales at the Thrift Store go to pay the Rescue Mission shelter's utilities. So, when you donate and shop there, you are actually helping someone who is homeless stay warm and eat hot meals! :)
Another blessing - there is more than a blanket available for anyone who finds themselves in need of a place to stay. The Rescue Mission, open 24 hours a day every day, is a place anyone can find a warm bed, a hot shower and a delicious meal.
