Mission: Since 1962 the Union Gospel Mission has provided food, clothing, shelter and a life-changing Gospel message to the homeless and the poor of Sacramento. The Mission has grown to serve more than 8,200 meals monthly. Every night, we shelter 84 men. Our Women's Clothing Closet offers Bible study and a huge variety of essential items such as clothing, purses, shoes, and sundries to assist them with their daily needs, help them prepare for work; and additional items for their children. We offer haircuts, mail service, and showers, continuously. We provide food boxes to seniors and families. Nightly nondenominational services and volunteer outreach programs give support for those who rarely hear an encouraging word from the Gospel and care from the heart. Our 9-month drug and alcohol Rehabilitation Program is free of charge and accommodates 24 men with a Bible-structured curriculum. A vocational training and job placement program to help men find new beginnings, restoring dignity to broken lives, and providing hope.
Results: The Mission continues to be a beacon of Jesus Christ's Light to all those who come through our doors! Each night Chapel Service is given by different church groups to share the Gospel that gives the eternal transformation of a new life in Christ! Other church groups serve the dinners every night, and then there are many volunteers who come for special events throughout the year and to serve in our Women's Clothing Closet.
