"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 2009:
MEALS PROVIDED: 121,447
BEDS PROVIDED: 31,433
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policy is superseded only when someone is dangerous or disruptive.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.

| “Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?” Weary and worn out describes more and more people that come seeking help at the Old Savannah City Mission. There are people who are “regulars.” Some would call them the “chronically homeless.” We choose to call them, Friends and Neighbors because that is who they are. Interspersed among them are more and more “new faces.” They are new in the sense of longevity on the streets. They are new in that while they have fallen on hard times; they haven’t yet turned to drugs or alcohol to medicate their pain. They are just weary and worn out. Because of caring people who support the Old Savannah City Mission, there is a ray of hope. A good, hot meal can do a lot for someone…it might just be the door to new hope, new strength and new vision for the future. When you pray for and support the Old Savannah City Mission, you are doing a good thing for someone you may never see.. You might not have the honor of giving to them directly and seeing the gleam of gratitude in their eyes. But, you gave. And, you make a difference. In anticipation of your continued faithful and generous support, I sincerely thank you. You do not have to pick up a check, find an envelope or buy a stamp. You can give right here, right now. God bless you! |
