Stepping Stone Shelter

Located at 311 N. Lincoln in Liberal, Kansas, this shelter provides hope and help to anyone who finds himself without food and shelter. The program involves classes in employment skills, total sobriety, and life skills. Clients are allowed to stay a designated number of days in the shelter depending on their progress on the program.

Stepping Stone Shelter is a temporary housing facility for those having no where else to stay. It is the only facility of its kind in the 11 county southwest Kansas area. It also serves the Oklahoma and Texas Panhandles and corners of New Mexico and Colorado.

The Stepping Stone Shelter is a temporary shelter for the homeless, providing, through its resources, opportunities for homeless families and individuals to make life changes that will prevent future homelessness.

1911

Around 1911 several Friends from the rural Liberal Rose Valley Meeting moved to Liberal along with a family from the Lone Star Meeting. These Friends met first in the home of Pastor Albin Gibson, then, in an old dance hall building called Craig Hall, and in the old Stamper Block. It was during these first two or three years that Friends minister Thomas Hockett and his family moved to Liberal from the Bethel Friends area.

1914

By 1914 there was enough interest to establish a Monthly meeting and build a meeting house. Liberal Monthly Meeting of Friends was established on the 2nd month, 8th Day, 1915. The group acquired property at the corner of 5th and Grant and construction was complete by April. On the 4th of April 1915 Kansas governor Arthur Capper, a Quaker, dedicated the new building. This building served the meeting well for many years.

1969

In March of 1969 a new building was needed and a committee was appointed to the task. In February of 1971 the trustees purchased 5.2 acres of land on North Western Avenue and a building was constructed on this site. The Liberal Friends first met in their new building on November 18, 1971, almost 57 years after the dedication of the old building at 5th and Grant.

Today

Few remember those first early days, but they mark the beginning of a group of Friends striving toward a common purpose: being led by the Holy Spirit of God to further the good news of Christ to all who have not heard. Our purpose remains the same. May God bless our meeting and may we always look to Him for guidance in all of our endeavors.
