Organizations Filed Purposes:
To care for the needy, share the good news of Jesus Christ and change lives by providing counseling, life skill training and dignity gained through work and Christ-centered discipleship.
Discipleship House: The Discipleship House provides transitional housing, case management, life skills training, and Christian discipleship to 14 men that are either homeless or in danger of homelessness. During their time at Discipleship House, residents work with a case manager to connect with community services to assist them in their desire to stabilize their life and avoid future homelessness. Services include connections with alcohol and drug rehabilitation services, counseling, and housing assistance. While at Good Samaritan Mission ("GSM"), residents also participate in a skills building curriculum designed to provide them with tools they need to succeed once they have left the program. Residents also participate in Bible study, prayer meetings, and groups designed to build residents up as Disciples of Christ. Besides participation in internal and community Church services, residents also have the opportunity to counsel with a GSM Pastor. Residents live in shared bedrooms and can remain in the program for one year.
The Women's Ministry: GSM provides counseling services to homeless and at-risk women in our area. GSM also does street outreach to women who are homeless, struggling with substance abuse, or caught in prostitution. Women are then invited to connect with other GSM activities and other social services.
Good Samaritan Center: The Good Samaritan Center is a day and overnight shelter and engagement center located across the street from Discipleship House. The Center provides day shelter and case management assistance to men and women each weekday from 9am-3pm. Guests also have the opportunity to connect with other community services through outreach provided to the center by local social service providers, as well as GSM Pastors. Visitors have the opportunity to learn about and attend other GSM functions, such as our Bible studies, prayer meetings, and life skills classes. Guests can be screened, at mutual request, for possible entry into Discipleship House. The center also provides overnight shelter for 14 men every day from 8:30pm-6am.
