City Mission Considers New Site Purchase
Lawton City Mission members will meet Monday night at 8:00 in the mission chapel to decide whether to sell the current 90 by 150 foot lot at 220 and move to a proposed site in the Lawton View addition. The plan would allow expansion of mission services and involves selling the present chapel and living quarters. Hutments on Lee boulevard were funded by local Churches of Christ for a church settlement, but the project was paused and the property is being offered to the City Mission without profit while a decision is made.
