When a man only has his dog left in his life isn't from around here and when he comes to you for a blanket. Telling him to get rid of his dog and get his priorities straight is not good news. Didnt even bother to treat him with basic dignity and give him a blanket knowing how cold it gets at night here. Disgusting behavior but don't worry I came back home and got him a blanket so him and his dog didn't freeze. Should be ashamed of yourself you are who these people are suppose to be able to turn to and a blanket was to much. Really hope u don't treat most people like that.

Is it truly good news when the director of this fine establishment knowingly employees someone who grooms and abuses kids? That person is around families every day! Is it God's plan to have him be around families knowing that a child's life …

What is the dining (hot meal) schedule? Thanks!

James T. Kirk | Mar 4, 2019
Fly, Honey Bre | Mar 5, 2019

Breakfast is served early, about 6 am, maybe 7? I think it's over by 7:15. Then lunch is right at noon, and dinners at 5. They allow you to come early, so you're welcome in the dining hall for breakfast as soon as the men's sleeping area is put up; for lunch at 11am; and for dinner at 4 pm. If there is any bible study or Christian movie shown, you can be inside then too, Also when severe weather is very cold or hot, they let you sit indoors. After dinner, a worship and sermon church service is from 6pm to 7pm, and after that showers and beds are available.

When can donations be dropped by? Do you take gently used appliances or furniture?

Lisa Jeter | Mar 4, 2019
Fly, Honey Bre | Mar 5, 2019

the donation center is usually open while the storage is open for shelter guests to access their belongings before and after meal times, but I recommend calling them during business hours. I know for sure they only had clothes, shoes, and small useful things available in the thrift store that they let me shop in for free when I stayed there for a month. The idea is to donate things that are going directly to the homeless population, so there is no home for them to put appliances or furniture to use. But there's a thrift store a few blocks away that probably would. I forget the name of it and cant search for it while already using the Google maps app to be on THIS page but I'm pretty sure the name starts with a P. zoom in on the downtown area close to the Mission and search "thrift stores" and give both places a call tomorrow during business hours. If this doesn't help ask again I'll be happy to look further for a solution with you. oh also another place. I'll edit answer in a few.

Can i go up there at anytime for assistance?

Helen Johnson | Mar 4, 2019
Timothy Riley | Mar 5, 2019

It depends on what type of assistance you are wanting. Job placement, training and other similar services are done by appointment at the offices on Market. General help is on a first come basis at the Mission building. Helen is right, early in the morning is best, however, free loaves of bread are available at the backdoor to the kitchen anytime.

I need a cost free rehab that will allow my children from cps to come live with me

Brandy Pease | Mar 4, 2019
Fly, Honey Bre | Mar 5, 2019

I've seen children at the Mission but I'm not sure about the program. It sounds like a hard situation to find, but I agree it's what you need, so I will be praying for you and your kids. Keep moving forward with hope because it's going to be easy to get discouraged while looking for the right program, which may not exist: but if it doesn't, no matter what happens, God himself is looking out for your best with love and attention to detail. So keep telling him what you need! https://americanaddictioncenters.org/addiction-help/ http://newpathdrugrehab.com
