This winter, Woods Chapel is opening our doors to provide a warm, safe, and welcoming place for 25 of our unhoused neighbors to sleep during dangerously cold weather. Our Warming Shelter will operate at our Raytown Campus from December 1 through March 1, opening when temperatures are forecast to reach 10°F.

On Thursday, November 5 at 6:30 PM, we'll gather at our Raytown Campus for a training and launch event as we prepare to welcome our neighbors this winter. Whether you can serve overnight, help prepare the space, welcome guests, prepare food, or simply want to learn more, there is a place for you in this ministry. Together, we can make sure that when the temperature drops, our neighbors don't have to face the cold alone. If you're interested in learning more about serving or attending the training, please share your interest HERE.
