Pastor continues homelessness fundraiser

Thursday, December 25, 2014 - 5:49 pm
Pastor Carlton Lynch of New Beginnings Church successfully spent Tuesday night homeless and raised enough money to provide 100 coats for the less fortunate men, women and children in our community. After developing friendships with area homeless men, Lynch was to eat with them at noon Thursday at the Rescue Mission during the Christmas meal and spend two more nights sleeping outside.
"I got to spend time with those who basically have nothing," Lynch said in a news release. "I realized that even though we were able to take care of providing coats, there is much more to be done. My new friends challenged me to spend Christmas with them out on the streets and that's what I am going to do. I challenge all of our other neighbors in the community to help me raise another $7,500 to provide 75 men shelter for 10 more days. Nobody deserves to be without a home any day of the week let alone during Christmas and New Year's."
To track Pastor Lynch's efforts or help support financially, go to www.gofundme.com/homelesslm. As of early Thursday evening he had raised $2,555 of the $7,500 goal.
Last year, roughly 2,000 free Christmas meals were served at the Rescue Mission, 301 W. Superior St.
The meal is made possible by donated food items from area individuals and groups, cash donations, and the assistance of more than 200 volunteers.
