City Gates Ministries Update

Sunday, January 27th, 2008

Gail WellsIn May 2007, Off the Map interviewer extraordinaire Pam Hogeweide introduced us to 74 year old great-grandmother and street pastor Gail Wells. Gail is the Executive Director of City Gates Ministries in Olympia, Washington, a faith-based organization that helps people on the street with practical needs. You can read the full interview here: How do you strike up a conversation with someone wearing a dog collar?

We wanted to follow-up Pam’s interview by letting our OTM community know that City Gates Ministries now has a website. You can check out their site to learn more about CGM’s programs and services, to sign up for their newsletter, or to meet some of their friends and discover their unique stories. Thanks, Gail and CGM for all you do!
