“The various community resources in Waynesboro have worked together to help those who are homeless in Waynesboro by providing them with food, shelter, clothing, and other needed services. We are proud of what has been accomplished in the past few years, and extremely excited about the plans for the future. We are pleased to host this community forum at St. John’s Episcopal Church,” says Fr. Kim Webster.
