Nashville Rescue Mission is a Christ-centered community committed to helping the hungry, homeless, and hurting by providing programs and services that focus on a person’s entire life—physical, mental, spiritual, emotional, and social.

VISION - GOALS AND ASPIRATIONS

Nashville Rescue Mission gives life transformational hope to everyone who walks through our doors. It’s why we say, “Hope Lives Here!”

SERVICES - HOW WE DO IT

Guest Services Ministries: HOPE FOR TODAY Emergency Services for Men, Women, and Mother’s with Children Meeting basic needs. Right here. Right now. Hope for Today is a hot meal for a hungry child. It is safe shelter for a single woman. It is case management for a homeless man. It is helping men and women in need prepare for employment. At Nashville Rescue Mission, we address homelessness and hopelessness in a way that is transformational and Christ-centered. We believe in order for someone’s heart to be open to change, we must first meet his or her most basic and immediate needs. With over 4,000 homeless individuals living on the streets of Nashville on any given night, Nashville Rescue Mission not only provides temporary assistance to the homeless, but truly gets to the root of the problems that lead to these broken lifestyles in the first place.

Hope for Tomorrow is counseling for a man who is battling addiction. It is caring for a woman who has suffered abuse. It is giving a child a safe place to play while mom gets the help she needs. It is teaching men and women new skills that will equip them for a better future. At Nashville Rescue Mission, we assess each individual’s situation and develop a plan specifically for them that will take them out of the situation they are now in and help them make plans for a better tomorrow. We believe God has a plan and a purpose for every person. The Mission’s program focuses on a person’s entire life—physical, mental, spiritual, emotional, and social.
