One of our ministries:
“The poor you have with you always.” “In as much as you have done it unto the least of these, you have done it unto me.”
Matthew 26:11 & 25:40
The primary purpose of the Mission is to acquaint the homeless and the wanderer with the priceless knowledge of the love and forgiveness of God in and through Jesus Christ. Our secondary purpose is to offer a bath, clean clothes, food and a place of shelter for the night. The San Antonio Rescue Mission came into being on October 22, 1975. This was the effort of a small group of Godly men desiring to meet the needs of “The Least of These”. This concern was initially funded by these men and later by many individuals, churches, business and civic organizations. We have ministered to over 250,000 men since our inception.
The Mission provides a complete change of clothing to our guests as needed. We maintain a large clothing storage area (shown in the photograph) which contains shirts, pants, coats, underwear and socks, and shoes. Our clothing articles are donated to us by both individuals and local churches. We also provide to our guests toiletries including soap, shampoo, toothbrushes and paste. In exchange for clothing, we take soiled men’s clothes and after washing, place these clothes in our clothing storage room for reissue to the men.
Redeemer will, on an on-going basis, collect gently used clothing and deliver it to the San Antonio Rescue Mission to support their mission of outreach and support.
