Bowie Mission moves to its new home

Published

on

Thanks to the efforts of many dedicated volunteers the Bowie Mission has moved into its new location at 201 E. Greenwood.

It was one week ago the mission was informed its building was no longer safe for occupancy, and they began a concentrated search to find a location.

David White, mission director, said they have been searching for a building for quite a while, but they had been able to find something that was workable for the budget and the space needs. White got in touch with the Shaw family about the former plumbing store on Greenwood and they were able to work out a deal. Read the full story about the move in the weekend News.
