Old Savannah City Mission

"Savannah's Five Star Gospel Rescue Mission"

More than a Meal

Knowing that
someone cares.

The first line of ministry of Old Savannah City Mission attends to the
most urgent needs of the hungry and homeless of our community. We
are cognizant of the emphasis Jesus gives to serving the less
fortunate. He is clear. Service to the least of these our brethren is
service to Him. We remember His words, “I was hungry and you gave
Me food. I was a stranger and you took Me in.” Matt 25:35

SERVICES PROVIDED IN 2007:
              MEALS PROVIDED: 122,074
              BEDS PROVIDED:     27,855

The number of meals includes those we deliver to inner city children
and to those who are not able to attend our special events. The
number of beds provided include pallets prepared on the many nights
where there are more people than beds. We aspire to make a place
for everyone who is in need of a place to sleep. Our “never-turn-away”
policy is superseded only when someone is dangerous or disruptive.

Over the years we have seen that a hot nutritious meal and a clean
safe bed can be the first step of a fresh start in life. People are
energized when they realize others care about them. Many people
show they care by their regular monthly gifts.   Are you one of them? If
so, thanks! If not, we need you to join us. Together we can make a
difference in the lives of our friends and neighbors who are going
through a tough time at the moment.

Please remember, you can help not only with your financial gifts, but
with donations of clean, usable clothing, non-perishable food items,
detergents, underwear, and most any other goods. We can provide you
with a receipt for all donations and this can be a blessing for you with
your tax preparer.

Old Savannah City Mission is blessed in many, many ways. Chief
among them is dedicated volunteers. Opportunities to volunteer vary
from tasks which require professional skills to those which can be
fulfilled simply by your presence. Contact us today and learn how you
can invest your God-given talent and time in serving the hungry,
homeless and hurting of our community. You will enjoy the fruit of
obedience and satisfaction of having lifted the heavy load of the less
fortunate.

Our 40 shelter beds are filled every night. All who sleep at the Mission
must shower. Once showered, a new set of underwear is provided by
generous donors. Yes, that’s right. When a man stays overnight, we
do unto him as we want others to do unto us. We call this our “gold
standard.” Personally, I would never want to shower and then have to
put back on the same underwear.
