PROGRAM INFORMATION

  • G.R.A.C.E

    The G.R.A.C.E. Discipleship Program is designed to be a six-month residential program for men seeking to address "life-controlling" issues in their lives. The majority of clients in this program come from a background of drug addiction and/or alcoholism. This program will also help address other issues of addiction and/or a life of poor decision-making. A curriculum that combines group classes, self-study, daily structure, and strong personal accountability provides the necessary tools for our clients to achieve the change in their lives that they seek.

  • BARNABAS

    Once our clients have completed the G.R.A.C.E. Discipleship Program, we have found that the majority of them are in need of a "next step". For those who don't have a support system in place, we provide them with housing, help with job search, budgeting, and re-integrating into "normal" society. Our After-Care program provides that "extra step" in helping our clients transition into a productive life. This program also serves as a "halfway house" for those coming out of another program or incarceration who may need a little help getting re-established in "normal life".

Community Outreach

The Union Gospel Mission was founded with a heart for the homeless and less fortunate. It is vital to us that we maintain programming that ministers to and provides for the needs of this segment of our community. To help meet these needs, we take the opportunity several times each year to reach out. Every Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, and other additional occasions, we set up downtown and provide free meals, personal items, and mostly friendship and fellowship to our friends in need.
