Saturday afternoon, a bunch of us turned out at The Family Place, a day shelter for homeless families.  We brought food and prepared dinner.  Marsha Foss, in the red shirt to the left, volunteers regularly at the shelter.   Volunteer Bob Fallat (not pictured) gave us a tour of the shelter, located behind First Baptist Church of St. Paul.  On average, the families helped by the shelter are homeless for no more than six months.
