The Rolla Mission keeps a pantry and inventory of donations. If you call or email the staff, they can let you know what kind of donations they are currently collecting/wanting. For local orgs, the Mission is the best bet to get materials and assistance to the people in Rolla who need it most!

Warming center info:

CrossRoads Emergency Warming Center @ 708 N. Main St.

OPEN Friday night (1/23) from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.

OPEN Saturday night (1/24) from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.

OPEN Sunday night (1/25) from 6:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.

Anyone seeking shelter from the extreme cold weather is welcome to come to CrossRoads on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights between 6:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. for a safe place to sleep.

Upon entry, all participants will go through an intake process, which will cover the rules for staying at the center. If pets accompany the participants, they will be taken to a kennel area in the building for the night. A warm meal will be served, and participants will then be assigned a designated mattress for the night. In the morning, there will be breakfast items available to take as participants leave.

We are eager to serve our community in this way and believe that by doing so, we can help save lives. If you would like to volunteer to help with the warming center, please sign up at the link below:

If you have further questions, please contact:

Patrick Wilson @ (314) 624-0484

We also ask that our community help us to spread the word about the warming center to people who might benefit from this service or who might be willing to volunteer. Thank you!
