516 North St, Cape Girardeau, Missouri 63701, United States
The People’s Shelter has been serving the city of Cape Girardeau since January 2017. At that time, a terrible winter storm was headed our way and unfortunately, a population of homeless people had begun to emerge from the crevices of our fair city. On January 9, the pastor and members of St. James held a meeting to discuss the situation, and on January 10, 2017, the doors of the church were opened. Due to COVID restrictions in 2020, we were not able to utilize our space for a warming center, however, we were able to provide hotel rooms for those needing shelter.
