Thank you, Greg Baker, for 37 years of Service!
After serving in the Air Force, Greg joined the Mission in 1987 as the Bank Program Driver, collecting donations from coin banks in fast food restaurants and grocery stores. Through the years, he has worked in accounting and as an office clerk depositing check donations. In 2022, he became our Receptionist, answering all our calls and meeting everyone who walked through our office doors. He loved helping distribute food boxes and assisting guests, volunteers, and donors. We are all so grateful for the many years of service he gave this Mission and will miss him tremendously! Please join us in prayer for the Lord to bless his new season of life!
Welcome Our New Receptionist
Welcome our new Receptionist, Franci Haynes! She began as a volunteer in 2022 in the Women’s Clothes Closet. She has faithfully served in multiple areas, including sorting clothes, running women’s showers, and assisting ladies with their many needs. She especially loved blessing them with the love of Christ and praying with them.
We are thankful for her dedicated service and are excited to begin this new chapter with Franci at the front desk.
Redemption House – A New Way of Living!
We exist to meet practical needs, train biblically, and send transformed lives back into society and a local church prepared for life. The Mission aims to do this with people overcoming daunting life circumstances. Our greatest hope is that someone will come to a saving knowledge of Jesus through our efforts. If, by God’s grace, someone is saved and desires to step into this new way of living, by faith, our time and investment into their lives can continue on for years.
If they graduate from our 10-month New Life Program, the pressure is on as they look for work, pay off debts and fines, search for a car, start saving money, and most importantly, pursue life in their local church. The difficulty of doing this without a transitional living situation is possible but tremendously difficult. In 2023, the Mission chose to acquire a home to alleviate the swift exit after graduation and provide continued care.
