Samaritan House Needs … The Samaritan House an emergency homeless shelter for families and women in the Jefferson City, TN area. This Christian Ministry could use some donations of some items. It has been over four years since I first shared about the opening of the New Samaritan House. I had the pleasure of going to the old location with Justin Breeden, when he did some Bible Studies at the old location. This new location is much bigger and much better. God truly has blessed this ministry and it continues to grow.

Other Items too
Some of these items like furniture help to go to families who transition out of the shelter into their own home. So, any items you can help a family have things in their own home can help too. I am not sure about storage of these items for them. Might be you hold it until they move into their place. You can always give Angie a call, number below, for some other current needs too.
