For more than 20 years, Glen Mar has hosted guests who are part of Grassroots Cold Weather Shelter for one week each winter. Guests of the shelter simply would not have housing during the cold winter months without this program.

During the past 2 years, we helped to host guests who were housed in a local hotel instead of in church buildings due to COVID. We just found out, that will happen for this year as well.

Our December week is a wonderful opportunity to show our warm Glen Mar hospitality to our guests in need of housing during the Christmas season.

Many volunteers are needed to:

  • Provide individually packed dinners and sandwiches
  • Provide bulk food items
  • Deliver meals to the guest’s rooms at the hotel

Sign up is now open!

 
 
While the Christmas season is a very busy one, please take a moment to consider how you can help in some way with this important ministry. If you have any questions please email the Cold Weather Shelter (CWS) Team.
