PUNTA GORDA — The Bread of
Life mission, a way station for this region’s homeless people since 2000,
is scheduled to be auctioned off
July 20 to satisfy a $110,000 foreclosure judgment, a court has ordered.
Despite the loss of the compound’s real estate, mission founder Judy Jones vowed Friday to continue tending to the destitute, even if she has to deliver their sustenance to the woods where they’ll be scattered.
