Abiding Savior Lutheran Church

Abiding Savior volunteers every year to help with Western Carolina Rescue Mission's Coat Drive.

We served several hundred homeless and low income people on Saturday, Nov 14,

providing warm coats, socks, gloves, hats and scarves.  We also served up a little love

through homemade cookies, hot chocolate and  lots of smiles and words of encouragement.

Coats ready for distribution.  All left over coats went to counties such as Madison

to serve those in rural areas outside of Asheville.  They will be distributed by local churches.
