Lowell Transitional Living Center

“Whatsoever You Do to the Least of My Brothers You Do unto Me”

                                                                                                  – Matthew 25:31-46             

Sunday November 22

  We will be joined by Andy McMahon, Director of the Lowell Transitional Center

 Andy will present an overview of the conditions at the Center.  As a follow up to his visit last year, he will outline the specific challenges the LTLC faces during the coming winter months.

As most of you know, we have supported the Lowell Transitional Living Center (LTLC) for many years. Each year we gather and send new underwear, socks, undershirts, scarves, and hats to the LTLC. We’ve also had fundraisers for specific items such as pillows, blankets, cots, and a commercial washer machine.  

Due to the Pandemic, we will be asking for “virtual donations” this year.  If you would like to support this ministry we ask you chose a donation ( listed below) and send a check directly the the Church of the Good Shepherd.  Please write LTLC in the memo on your check.

I also encourage you to send a card ( or cards if you’d like to write/make more than one) with words of encouragement to the staff and residents along with your donation.

Here are the donation options:

$10.00 - socks, underwear, undershirts scarves, hats

$20.00-  pillows

$50.00 - blankets

$100.00 - cots

(If you’d prefer you can also send checks/gift cards for items that are not on the list above. )

In closing, here is my last email from Andy on 10/31:

 “Thank you and everyone else at the Church for your continued support of LTLC's mission to help the homeless. You are certainly correct about Winter Bed needs....cots, blankets and pillows are great and always in need. As far as drives go...anything warm..... Gift cards to places like Market Basket or the Dollar Store or similar stores are great too. Checks are fine. Whatever makes the most sense for folks is perfect. This Winter will likely prove to be the most challenging yet. It is comforting to know that we are not alone as we head into the "great unknown"

Andy”

 I thank you all for your past generosity and hope that in this very difficult time, you will help sustain this ministry.
