  • Meet Michael

    If you’ve dropped off food at the Mission’s kitchen door recently, you might have been greeted with a burst of joy from Michael, our new Hospitality Supervisor. He loves sharing God’s love through good food and warm smiles. But Michael wasn’t always joyful. At 13, he lost both of his grandparents in one week.…

  • From the Director ~ May 2022

    Dear Friends, Blessings to you and yours! As I think about the “yours” of that last phrase, I think about family – both family by blood and family by love. Sometimes, in the brokenness of this world, families drift apart. Addiction, homelessness, and incarceration, among other challenges, have a way of driving families apart…

  • Congrats Grads!

    “Run Hah-Dah!” That’s “run harder!” with the Brooklyn accent of Bob Emberger’s cross-country coach, Phil Golden, from Lincoln High School in the 1970s.

  • From the Director ~ Christmas 2021

    Dear Friend of the Mission, When I was growing up in the 1960’s, Christmas at my house was always a magical time filled with wonder and joy. I never got too excited about Santa Claus, but I did get excited about the Sears Catalog that was brimming with pictures of the most wonderful toys.…

  • From the Director ~ Thanksgiving 2021

    Dear Friend of the Mission, Because COVID is still very much with us, our 2021 Thanksgiving Day celebration is once again going to be a somewhat small affair.  We normally have a big crowd of 130-140 people – our residents, volunteers, Mission friends, New Life Program graduates, staff members, and family members of our…
