Mustard Seed leaving Lethbridge after sober shelter denied
LETHBRIDGE, AB– After City Council shot down the proposed “sober shelter” from the Mustard Seed and the Lethbridge Soup Kitchen, the Mustard Seed appears to be giving up on Lethbridge.
Executive Director of the Lethbridge Soup Kitchen, Bill Ginther, confirmed that the partnership between them and the Mustard Seed is now over.
“The sad part for me is they have decided as of this morning officially they will be leaving town, they will not be here, they’ve invested upwards of $100,000.”
“I met with them this morning for an hour and a half and they have made it official that they will not be staying in town,” Ginther added, reiterating that, after all their combined efforts, the Mustard Seed is saying goodbye to the city.
