Episode 17: Why Take the Chance of Hiring or Housing a Mission Resident? May 10, 2018

A clean UA. A hard worker. Someone who can interact well with others and be a responsible tenant. These are only some of the reason why hiring or housing a Mission resident can be a great way to have a huge impact on the success of the Gospel Rescue Mission.

Episode 16: Change In 30 Days - Celia's Story Apr 23, 2018

Show notes

A common theme that we cover on this podcast is how the Mission is not just another shelter. What does that mean? It means that here at the Mission we want to make homelessness something to escape from, not just to be less miserable in. Our goal is that no matter how long one of our residents stays here, they leave changed. Today we have a special guest interviewer – Farrah Guthrie, the Women’s Coordinator at the Grants Pass Mission. She speaks with Celia, a resident who left just after 30 days – but whose outlook on her life changed completely.

Episode 12: Overcoming Barriers to Independence – “Why She Said 'Yes' to a Smile” Nov 20, 2017

Show notes

Many of us would say, “I’d love to help, but I don’t have much to give.” Does giving have to mean lots of money or time volunteering at a local charity? For Dr. Sara Riechers at Compassionate Dentistry, it simply means doing what she does every day… making people smile. We caught up with her late on a Friday to ask her why, and here is what she said… Check out the rest of Chris' story here: http://gospelrescuemissiongp.org/2017/11/a-brand-new-smile-for-chris/
