Who We Are
We are Christians from various churches who serve together for the sake of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
The urban poor come to us from many different circumstances. They come from prison, from addiction, from abuse and homelessness. All of them downcast, without hope.
UGM seeks to bring the hope of Christ to them all year round.

“I’m thankful for the Mission because it exposed me to the Gospel… and wrapped their arms around me, showing me love regardless of my background. Before coming to the Mission, I was blind and trapped in my sins and addiction. Now, I’m set free. I have faith and hope, knowing that I am in Christ.”

Our Services
For Women
Our Women’s Clothes Closet gives women and children a safe, comforting place to experience the love of Christ. The clothing, showers, and hygiene products they receive at no charge are tangible representations of the Gospel of grace they hear about each Tuesday and Thursday. We help them prepare for interviews, find housing, and provide necessities for their children.

As a 501(c) 3 non-profit that never receives any government funding, it is only by the grace of God through the generosity of his people, business, and organizations that we can preach the Gospel and care for others as Christ has commanded, loving them as he has loved us.
By God’s grace, we will continue to welcome the streets of Sacramento through our doors and reach the least, the last, and the lost for the Gospel of Jesus Christ, sending out lives redeemed and set free by our Lord.
