Lighthouse Mission Ministries open house

Lighthouse Mission Ministries, which has been serving Whatcom County’s homeless since 1923, is offering an open house from 3:00—7:00 p.m. Aug. 3.

Approximately 230 men, women and children receive shelter and care from Lighthouse Mission Ministries each night and 350 nutritious meals are served daily.

“The open house is ideal for people who want to learn more about how we assist guests experiencing homelessness with free meals, safe shelter and life-changing programs,” said Hans Erchinger-Davis, executive director of Lighthouse Mission Ministries.

Tours will start at the main shelter at 910 W. Holly St. Visitors will have the chance to see the entire Mission campus including the Drop-In Center shelter at 1013 W. Holly St. Staff members will provide information, stories, and answer questions for people taking the self-guided tours. Complimentary refreshments will be served.
