Shelter MINISTRY

Preventing people that are going through difficult times from living on the street. Perhaps some rest and encouragement can change everything.

The shelter is open at 4:00 PM and closes at 8:00 AM the following morning. Until further notice (due to COVID19) new shelter guests are required to call (803-775-0757 or 803-775-0024) before they can enter the shelter.

The Shelter Ministry is here to help people without shelter in Sumter County. Our hope is that our guests take steps toward suitable housing and supportive relationships resulting in a full and rewarding life.

All shelter guests receive a meal at 7:00 PM and have access to amenities such as laundry washing and drying machines and showers.
