Outreach
Because God first rescued us.
Those experiencing homelessness will find the best shelter they can, perhaps under a bridge or in a brushy area. Others will join makeshift camps in various areas, often in conditions that are dangerous and unsanitary.
John 3:16 Mission finds these neighbors through its Outreach Program. Once a week, specially trained Mission staff and volunteers search out areas where homeless people may be living. We enter these camps to check on the welfare of those living there. We encourage them to come to the Mission for meals, shelter, care, and recovery, and we help provide casework to connect them with other social services.
Outreach operations have resulted in many men and women coming to the Mission for assistance, and some have successfully completed our recovery programs.
Do you know of an encampment that might need our help?
Please let us know where the location is so we can check on our neighbors.
