Union Gospel Mission has been going though changes in recent months.

The biggest change, is the selection of a new executive director.

Susan Jordahl Bubacz has been with the organization for nearly four months. 

She says it’s been a phenomenal four months and she has an incredible staff. 

In recent months, there has been a 30 percent increase in need for meals. 

They are the only soup kitchen in Duluth that is open 7 days a week. 

Jordahl Bubacz says the patrons are “just beautiful people.”

Union Gospel Mission needs hygiene products the most right now.
