Our Mission & Values

Our mission is to reach the homeless and needy of Rhode Island's urban centers with the Gospel of Jesus Christ while providing physical, emotional, educational and rehabilitative services at no expense to those in need.

The Providence Rescue Mission is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization in the West End of Providence, Rhode Island.  We are more than just a homeless shelter and soup kitchen. Our goal is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ while treating every individual that comes through our doors with dignity and respect.  We are able to do this because of you who faithfully, month after month, donate your time, materials and resources to us. We believe that God does miracles, and due to your faithful support, we see them every day. Thank you so much for being a friend of the mission. All of the services we provide are made available to every member of our community. There is never a charge for anything that we offer. We believe that by providing these necessary services with the dignity and love of the Lord, we make a direct and lasting impact on the people we serve on a daily basis.
