Purpose
First Peter 5:7 says “Casting all your care upon Him, for He careth for you.” From this verse, we derive our statement of purpose: To Bring Hope to the Homeless.

Mission Statement
To show the love of Christ to the needy in our area by providing their physical, emotional, and spiritual needs.

Our Ministry
To reach people whom others would consider unreachable. We are dedicated to ministering to the needs of the homeless and transient population in our area. Our shelter guests are treated with love, kindness, respect, and compassion. All our shelter guests are provided warm meals, showers, clean beds, and safe shelter for the night. We endeavor to provide a healthy alternative to the temptations of street life. Our goal at the Chattanooga Rescue Mission is to show the love of Christ to a lost and dying world.

Every day brings new faces of those in need. Some need a meal, some a place to sleep. Others come for a deeper need.
