Mission celebrates 60th anniversary

On May 22, the Nashville Rescue Mission celebrated its 60th anniversary and showed off its new landscaping and parking lot.

As we detailed in March, the Nashville Rescue Mission underwent a beautification project that included the addition of a rain garden, raised planters, more than 50 new trees, an outdoor recreational area, increased parking and a redesigned, improved entrance into the parking lot, as well as into the building.

Here are some pictures from the event.
