It serves a lot of purposethat being saidit is an eye opener.
Awesome place love the friendly staff and people that are here when i come visit with my uncle David Carrier
I was stranded coming from the hospital in a strange city. The hospital sent me to the mission. I felt protected and comfortable there. The councilors we very caring.
They protect chomo sex offenders who rape lil kids.
Awesome place to get help
They're very big on some occasionally unusual rules, and some staff can be surly (but many are great). Expect to be searched and possibly breathalyzed on entry. One hour of chapel sermon attendance is mandatory. Bunk beds are comfortable and atmosphere usually calm.
It is what you make it. I was ostracized by my family due to addiction. This place gave me more than enough food, a place to sleep, and helped me to get closer to god by offering chapel 7 days a week. Con's Watch your stuff, people will steal just about anything, but that's almost anywhere and some of the staff are rude just for the sport of it. You can tell burn out among staff is a real and big thing there. Overall I give this place 4 stars because of what it is trying to do, and actually doing, plus the staff that actually matter, are very respectable.
URM. Its no way as bad as past comments have described. They do have somewhat oddball rules. But they have good reasons for these rules. Theft is an everyday event. So rules do apply. The food is very good. Ive never seen anyone turn down a meal. The staff can be very tough but they have to be. Some residents can be trouble makers and the staff have to deal with this on a daily bases. When you first check in, they give 90 days of free meals and a bed. I'm very appreciative for this org.
Not a bad place, they do what they can.
DO NOT use their programs save your self the hassle. Anything beyond an over night stay is a waste of time. It may seem like it might be worth it but its not. Tom Meyers is the fakest Christian ive ever met along with jay lewis. Not to mention lazy. Oh how lazy jay is. Even compared to the homeless people this place serves, he's incredibly lazy. To lazy to write an email, make a phone call, or even walk across a hall. In the bible it says you will be a new creation in christ. Well if these two guys really changed then what they changed into is people who only want a paycheck and absolutely nothing else.
