Savanna’s Story

Savanna’s journey from addiction to transformation began with a desperate cry for help at her lowest point—pregnant, overwhelmed, and unable to stop. What followed was a series of moments that could have ended in loss, but instead led to unexpected peace, redemption, and a second chance at life and motherhood. Read her full story to see how everything changed.

I was born with a God-shaped hole deep in my soul, and I never knew what was wrong with me…

A Message from Our CEO
Lisa Chastain

THIS MONTH’S MESSAGE REVEALS WHAT’S MISSING IN HOMELESSNESS RECOVERY—AND WHAT TRULY CHANGES LIVES

Stories like Savanna’s remind us that true transformation is possible—but they also reveal what’s missing in so many approaches to homelessness today. While millions are spent each year with little lasting impact, too many lives remain stuck in cycles of survival without real healing. At Gospel Rescue Mission, we see every day that lasting change requires more than temporary solutions—it requires time, care, community, and the life-changing power of God.

GOOD FRIDAY BREAKFAST 2026
When a Simple Gift Becomes a Powerful Reminder of Hope

Since 1999, this meaningful gathering has united our community in reflecting on the true significance of Good Friday. This year, in front of a sold-out audience (nearly 1,200 attendees), we were privileged to host keynote speaker Miles Simon—1997 NCAA National Champion, Final Four Most Outstanding Player, NBA veteran, and respected coach—whose powerful message left a lasting impression on everyone present.

Good Friday reminds us of Christ’s sacrifice, and Easter reminds us of the hope of new life. It’s a promise we witness every day at Gospel Rescue Mission as lives are transformed from homelessness to wholeness.

Thank you to everyone who supported this event through sponsorship, attendance, and prayer—and for standing with us to bring hope, compassion, and transformation to those who need it most.

Easter blessing 2026
When a Simple Gift Becomes a Powerful Reminder of Hope

Easter Blessings is more than an event—it’s a powerful expression of hope, bringing our community together to serve men, women, and families with meals, essential resources, and the love of Christ. In a time when many are facing uncertainty, it becomes a place of connection, dignity, and care—where every person is seen, valued, and reminded they are not alone.

Because of you, real needs were met and lives were touched. Your generosity and willingness to serve made it possible not only to provide for immediate needs, but to open the door to lasting transformation.

Below are the results from this year’s Easter Blessings event, representing lives impacted through your compassion and support. As we reflect on this season, we’re reminded that gratitude is more than something we say—it’s something we live out together.

You made this possible.
