Vision for the Future

Over 40% of the homeless population consists of single women, single mothers with children and entire families.

Nightly, our chapel service welcomes families that stay afterward for a hot meal. Since our limited facilities cannot accommodate women and children overnight, we must turn them away after they've eaten. We ask for your prayers in addressing the serious need in our community for a Women and Families Homeless Shelter. "Where there is no vision the people perish." Proverbs 29:18a.

Please prayerfully consider the following avenues of helping your local mission:

• Prayer Support
• Financial Support
• Food Donations
• Clothing Donations
• Volunteer Work
• Office Supplies
• Cleaning Supplies
• Toiletries

Help us to reach out and touch lives.

Boise Rescue Mission

The Boise Rescue Mission is a beacon of hope to the homeless in our community. Since 1958, we have been supplying basic physical needs and spiritual fellowship for the down- trodden in our city. "Give a cup of water to drink in MY name." Mark 9:41, is a verse that provides our purpose and our priorities.

We exist only through individuals, churches, businesses and volunteers giving their prayers and gifts of time, supplies, services and money. Through them, we provide the following:

 Food/Clothing/Shelter

The Boise Rescue Mission offers a clean, safe shelter for the homeless in Boise. All clients are offered a hot shower and shave, a hot meal and any clothing they may need. Four meals are served daily. Current facilities allow us to provide sleeping quarters to approximately 60 men and to feed approximately 70 people at one time. As Boise grows, so do our numbers and needs. "...I command you to be openhanded toward your brothers and toward the poor and needy in your land." Deuteronomy 15:11.

  Good News/Discipleship/ Recovery Program

Initiated in 1996, this 12 month program is designed to afford men the opportunity to study God's Word in depth and to help them overcome their problems and face their concerns.

This program includes one-on-one counceling, group and individual Bible studies and daily task assignments. "I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you" Psalm 119:11.
 

Computer Learning Center

A new program addition is Basic PC training. Learning these new skills can help establish self esteem, and expand employment opportunities.  

Chapel Services

"Preach the word..., with great patience and careful instruction." 2 Timothy 4:2. This charge is fulfilled daily through the support of area pastors and church groups. These dedicated individuals allow us to conduct nightly chapel services which usually begin at 8 p.m.

Volunteers

These are opportunities to get involved in the Boise Rescue Mission Ministry. You can help minister to the emotional, physical and spiritual needs of those less fortunate. If interested, please call (208) 343-2389.
