For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat,
 I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink,
 I was a stranger and you invited me in,

The Anchorage Gospel Rescue Mission is dedicated to demonstrating the love and power of God and to bringing people into a life-changing relationship with his son Jesus Christ. We are a nonprofit organization who receives NO municipal, state or federal funds. We are not a United Way® agency. Your financial support and In Kind donations make it possible for us to provide for the poor, needy and homeless in our community. We also administer educational and counseling programs in an attempt to foster opportunities for healing, growth, and employment for those in need.

Statement of Purpose

from the constitution and by-laws of the Anchorage Gospel Rescue Mission Inc (revised Oct 14, 1996): 

 ·    Article II, Purpose:  We are a Christian organization and our purpose is to show God’s love through example and in a practical manner by providing for the needs of the homeless, poor, needy and dysfunctional people in our community.  Our goal, is Rescue and Rehabilitation.  Our aim, is to return the people that come to use for help to being useful citizens in Society.

 

Guiding Principals for finding a new home for the Lord’s Lovely Mission on the Move:

·   Follow the Mission’s stated corporate Purpose and remain non-profit, non-denominational and non-discriminatory.

·   Make and follow a 100 year plan and adjust it periodically.

·   Be a good neighbor.

·   Work cooperatively with other homeless agencies.

·   Avoid a fight for everyone.  Remain lowly, meek, long suffering and forebear others in love, no matter what.  Love people into cooperation.  Turn the other cheek but don’t run the other way.  Submit and seek changes.

·   Don’t give up.  Expect a miracle.
