"Through the power of spirituality and the practice of love, we provide hospitality with a respect that offers hope in a community of non-violence." That is the core value of Room in the Inn (RITI), a non-profit organization that provides emergency shelter, transitional housing, and comprehensive support services for people experiencing homelessness.
West End is beginning preparation for the RITI Winter Shelter program which runs from November through March each year in coordination with over 100 congregations throughout Middle Tennessee. The program provides safe shelter, warm meals, and fellowship for our neighbors experiencing homelessness during the coldest months of the year.
We're in need of bus drivers and overnight hosts this season. If interested in volunteering, please email Rev. Stacey at [email protected].
