UPDATE ON THE RED ROCK INN:

Fr. Jose Arroyo, Diana M Nunez Caban and Alvaro Mendez of St. Michael’s Church are among several volunteers who are showing support to the residents at the Red Rock Inn in Plymouth, IN. Food and refreshments are being provided to individuals who are going to be communicated with Friday evening regarding their needs and to connect them with resources. Behind the scenes have been great efforts by Link to Hope, the Poor Handmaids of Jesus Christ, government leaders and other volunteers to show love and support to individuals and families who call Red Rock Inn home. Mayor Robert Listenberger has also met with the residents to communicate with them and show support. A press release was issued earlier today to media regarding an order to vacate. That press release was shared in an earlier post. Effort has been made to issue necessary orders to comply with codes while also taking in to consideration the needs of individuals and families.
