Yes, they are broken in so many ways, but this is just First United Methodist Church taking a “break” for building maintenance and administrative issues – but still, this will likely cause a little havoc. The showers are covered, but what about the sack lunches? I know a lot of people who use them since they can’t use the food pantries without an address in most cases.
