To accommodate what is sure to be a busy Christmas season Good Samaritan Ministries is extending its hours by one hour on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays from December 1 through 23.
The office hours for December will now be from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday and will remain from 1 to 5 p.m. on Wednesdays.
GSM is still collecting food for Christmas boxes which will begin distribution Dec. 1 through 23. Every family who needs one will get a box. It is not first come first served so anyone who needs a Christmas box filled with most of the ingredients needed to make a traditional Christmas dinner can come by anytime between December 1 and 23.
Anyone who would like to donate any items for the Christmas boxes may bring them to: Trans Texas Tire, Brownwood City Hall, Burkes Outlet, KOXE, Fit by Faith, Family Services Center, First United Methodist Church Pre-School, Rhinestone Ranch/The Rage, J.B. Stephens Elementary School or Wendlee Broadcasting.
