Shepherd’s House plans to renovate former Redmond church to help the homeless
BEND, Ore. (KTVZ) Shepherd’s House Ministries, a nonprofit shelter operator in Bend, is partnering with Redmond churches to develop a year-round shelter for Redmond s homeless population.
Director of Development Dave Notari, said they have been doing winter ministries in Redmond and in that seven year span, they have been looking for an opportunity to develop a homeless shelter.
“The need in Redmond continues to grow with those who are experiencing homelessness and are unhoused,” Notari said.
With the homeless population growing in Redmond, Notari is glad to play a vital role in the solution. The homeless shelter will be located in a former Redmond church on Highway 97 and is scheduled to be up and running by next January.
