The snow, freezing rain, sleet, and winds are heard outside, but we feel safe and warm; sheltered by our homes, no matter how big or small; it's our sanctuary.
An extension on how long some people can stay in the St. Cloud homeless shelters has been made permanent. Back in 2011 the city council amended the city ordinance that allowed 10 percent of people staying at a shelter to live there an extra 45 days, beyond the standard 45-day limit.
