Shelter to open for homeless on winter nights
People living on the streets have hope that their situation might change if they can just get through the day — or the winter.
Glade Run Lutheran Services will open a warming center for the homeless on Monday. From 10 p.m. to 8 a.m., vulnerable people can find a warm refuge at Calvary Church’s Grace Wellness Center at 123 E. Diamond Street.
The warming center will remain open through March 31.
