The homeless, the poor, and addicted come through our doors from all walks of life, their patchwork paths and diverse stories dotted with pain and brokenness caused by sin. They come to us from prisons, hospitals, mental health centers, foster care, and even normal lives controlled by addiction. Many have been abused or neglected throughout life, and most are at the mercy of streets ridden with crime. No matter their situation or suffering, they all have one thing in common – hopelessness. Open 365 days a year, 24 hours a day, we’re a refuge from the storms of their lives and the lighthouse that points them to salvation. We’re there for them with food, shelter, showers, clothing, hygiene, and so much more. We believe in true compassion - the kind that acts. But we believe in more than that. We believe in the life-changing power of the Gospel. Our 10-month Men’s New Life Program is a free, on-site addiction recovery program centered on God’s word. We house 24 men on our campus for our Bible-based rehabilitation. Once completed, graduates can receive ongoing housing, additional vocational training, job placement, and continued counseling to ensure future success in their new lives. Our Women's Clothes Closet gives women and children a safe place to receive free clothing, showers, and hygiene products every Tuesday and Thursday, alongside a gospel-centered message. We help them prepare for interviews, find recovery, housing, and provide for their children. We never accept any government funding, which means it’s only by the grace of God through the generosity of his people, businesses, and organizations that we can provide: Daily gospel preaching Hot, nutritious meals served daily Shelter with 84 beds each night Showers, clothing, shoes, hygiene, and essential items distributed daily Mail Services for those without a residence Food Boxes to the community Redemption House, where graduates can achieve financial independence
