This is faith in action at Grace Lutheran Church in Apple Valley. With an appeal from Dakota County and support from Pastors Andrea Roske-Metcalfe and John Matthews, Grace opened its doors this evening to homeless Dakota County residents: seniors, adults, youth and children. Our stay is for a few days and a new site is needed.
If you can help identify a temporary or more stable shelter site or offer financial support, please contact Monica Nilsson at 612.405.5156.
