“What exactly do you guys take at the Mission?” That is a question we are often asked at the Mission. We can honestly say we take ANYTHING! If you can use it in your house, we can use it at the Living Water Rescue Mission. We have thousands of people coming to the mission every year in need of all the things we use every day in our homes. We are in constant need of clothing, bed linen, furniture, old appliances, little soaps and shampoos collected from motels, you name it.
By the very nature of the Living Water Rescue Ministry plan, we rarely purchase needed goods. We trust in God to touch the hearts of our many donors to provide the required items. As with all aspects of our ministry, we see God’s hand at work in the donation shed as well as all other areas of ministry. We give Him the praise for all His many provisions.
If there is any life left in your “leftovers” bring it down to the Living Water Rescue Mission, and we will promptly send you a receipt, either through the mail or via e-mail.
