World Homeless Day 2019 - Redding Light House Church and Homeless Ministry




1090 California St

It is with great pleasure to announce Redding Coalition for the Homeless  is seeking donations during World Homeless Day and through the holidays for Redding Light House Church and Homeless Ministry ! This fantastic Christian church and ministry is meeting the spiritual as well as physical needs of the homeless community at the street level.

With your help we can reach those with Love and Compassion that live on our streets in a time when "abundance rejoices and want is keenly felt."

A Holiday season were homeless experience never before seen levels of criminalization, where shade and refuge trees from summer heat are cut down, and every nook and building cranny is fenced off or gated to prevent taking shelter.

Horrible vigilante violence has been carried out against homeless, and groups have attacked men and women especially when they are asleep. If that is you or somebody you know please...

Redding and Shasta County No New Tax for New Jails Group







Redding and Shasta County is suffering a homeless shelter crisis, and its police have been dispensing "cruel and unusual punishment" for years writing tickets for homeless "camping."

Martin v. City of Boise says cities can’t punish the homeless for sleeping outdoors or on public property.

We are Shasta County citizens opposing a 2020 ballot initiative to increase the sales tax to build new jails and or police ran detention rehabilitation centers.




Anderson Police Chief Johnson "Stalag" homeless "solution"



Anderson police 'embrace' pigdom during Chinese Year of the Pig


Say NO to Anderson California police Chief Johnson and his proposal for a transitional rehabilitation center in Shasta County. Seems anything but Christian....even Anti Christ since a federal court affirms cities can’t criminalize homelessness.


“The idea of forcing homeless people into detention facilities through some kind federally led, law enforcement/military style effort is also inhumane and grotesque, and does not appear to have been thought out so hopefully that is not actually the strategy.”

"The court can’t force cities to build adequate shelter space or homeless housing, but it can make it unconstitutional for them to criminalize homelessness until that burden has been met."




Next door Good News Rescue Mission



Say NO to Good News Rescue Mission having anything to do with a desperately needed new low barrier homeless shelter. It is believed the Good News Rescue Mission has become a political subdivision of the City of Redding.









Next door Good News Rescue Mission
