Winter is often the cruelest season for those without a home. Thin jackets are no match for the cold and humid wind. You can help. Operation Warm Heart is an effort we take on each year to help those on the streets during cold nights. There are some people in our area that do not utilize our services and spend their nights outside. When the temperature drops the Rescue Mission takes our truck around town to provide warmth and an encouraging word. We collect and purchase pastries, coffee, blankets and jackets to hand out to keep them from having difficulty with the weather. For $3.00 you can help someone fight the cold and show compassion to those who need it the most. Yes, I would like to help fund Operation Warm Heart:

The Mission has operated in its current location since the 1980's after pressure from the City for it to move from its former Beach Drive location where is was founded in 1972. The current location is in an area close to government agencies, public transportation, and temporary day labor pools. The staff and board of directors have continually worked to improve and upgrade the Mission's facilities downtown, and thus, is currently one of the best looking buildings along the 6th Street corridor.
No one can force the Mission to move, and it is our hope that we can remain included in the discussions about its current location and operations. Currently, one of the Mission's board members is serving on the City's task force to help find solutions to the perceived problem of vagrants downtown. Mission will continue to serve the poor, neglected, homeless, and needy in the name of Christ, bringing hope to those without it. Thank you to all those who are standing with the Mission with your words of encouragement, prayers, and your gifts. It is our prayer that in everything we do, we glorify Christ. "So, let's not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest if we don't give up," Gal 6:9 Who does the Mission help?
