HopeIt starts with

Seattle’s Union Gospel Mission 2014

I’m often asked if we ever get overwhelmed by the amount of need the Mission sees on a daily basis, or by the magnitude of problems facing so many. No, we are not. We are stirred by it; compelled by it; maybe even driven by it to do more. In fact, one of the Mission’s core values is to work with a “passionate urgency.”

The Mission was founded on values written into Scripture thousands of years ago. These are values and virtues consistent with a God who loves, heals, and forgives; a God who saves us from injustice, from another’s poor choices, and from our own.

Because of our faith, we are not idle dreamers. We are believers. And we have hope. We see lives changed every day. We are on the front lines of where good meets evil, where healing meets brokenness, and where love reaches out and embraces the lonely and discarded. I saw it happen today, and so I hope (and believe) it will happen again tomorrow.

Mother Teresa once said, “I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples.” The truth is, in spite of this hope that burns within us, if we were trying to meet this city’s desperate needs alone, we could easily be overwhelmed. But we don’t have to carry this burden alone. We are the beneficiaries of the time, talent, and resources of so many extraordinary partners all across the city who join with us to help better serve those in greatest need.

Somewhere out there tonight are hurting people with a flickering of hope inside them. They have a sense that maybe there is something or someone good capable of making a difference. We have seen God’s hand at work, and with friends and supporters like you, we can make good on the promise of hope.

Thank you for all that you have made possible this year!

In Christ,

Dear Friends,

ForgivenessIt starts with

PATSY “I came to the Women and Children’s Shelter in January 2007 directly from prison. My plan was to ‘get out of there’ as soon as possible, but then I was introduced to Jesus by a resident named Betty at a community meeting. The Bible taught me about faith, hope, and forgiveness. I needed to forgive the man who shot my boyfriend in front of me. That was the one thing that had kept me in darkness. Once I forgave him, I felt 20 years of weight lift away.

“My Mission case manager Sarah was the best role model. She challenged me to do the next right thing, even when I didn’t want to, because I could grow into the person I wanted to be. I was living on $339 a month, and Sarah taught me how to do a budget, so I saved about $3,000 in a year’s time! Other women went out to eat and shopping but I had $30 a month to live on. I used my savings to get a car, to move forward. Now I budget. I save. And my bills are paid.

“Without the support of people like Betty and Sarah, someone who starts from homelessness, addiction, and hopelessness wouldn’t have a BA, be serving the community as a Chemical Dependency Clinician, and getting a master’s degree. Today I carry a caseload of 70 people, and I hold them accountable like Sarah taught me. But I also show them unconditional love—because I know what a difference that makes.”

RICKY “I lived alone in my cell—a bed, a metal sink, and a toilet. I was sad and lonely. On the walls of my cell there were names written: ‘So and so was here.’ I thought, ‘If you write your name, it means you’ll be back again.’ So I focused on learning, I earned a baking certificate, and I never wrote my name on that wall.

“Today, because of the Mission, because of Jesus, I’m no longer surviving in FEAR. I’m living in FAITH. Today, I have one hope: to heal and help people. Being involved with Street Outreach/ 118 Designs has allowed me to mentor younger kids and gang members who say they don’t want to live as I did. I’m trying to show them that you can live better…not just tell them. I got four guys out of gangs. Five go to school consistently. Three have part time jobs. And five I talk to on a weekly basis.

“My old nickname used to be “Slick.” Today, I have a new name, ‘SLIC’ (Suddenly Living in Christ). I’ve got my driver’s license and my own place to live. I’m about to be a business owner with my own bakeshop: Sincerest Sweets and Treats of Life. I’m also engaged to be married and look forward to being a husband and father.

“Today, I am a man who praises God. And my life is living proof of the power of that path.”

“It was an honor to join the young men of 118 Designs in the Ice House entrepreneurship course. As part of their commitment to transformation, we explored how it’s often fear that keeps us from moving from idea to action—fear of failure, success, or of the unknown. I was inspired to watch their courage stare down these fears through the course of our ten weeks together.”

MIKE SKINNER Director of the Center for Inclusive Entrepreneurship Pinchot University

Faith

FY 2014It was another wonderful year of community support. At the Mission, partnerships are the fabric of our work—the people and resources weave themselves in and out and around each of the lives we serve.

Through these partnerships, your generosity, and God’s amazing grace, over 10,000 men, women, and children have been directly served—urban at-risk kids; adults in addiction recovery; young men escaping urban gangs; incarcerated men and women, and homeless kids and adults.

This report highlights a few of them, and some partners like you who helped pave the way. Your gifts are very real investments in lives that keep paying dividends for decades to come. We hope you share our confidence and joy in this report.

Feeling SafeIt starts with

TRACY “It’s hard to imagine a life where you don’t have any shoes and you have to wonder what you’re going to do when you’ve worn through your socks. At the Mission, knowing that your basic needs are taken care of, takes off the weight of surviving, so you can focus on the big issues and soften your heart. Eating your first meal in comfort and safety is a pivotal moment between having a future and going back out there…to nothing.

“Before I came here, I’d lost everything—including my faith in God, in other people, and in myself. Jack in the kitchen took me under his wing and we began playing worship music together. Someone taking an interest in me changed how I saw myself. And rediscovering Jesus through music gave me a way to heal.

“Worship music chases away the darkness and gives people hope. It inspires people to let go of their inhibitions and shame, which leaves them with an open heart for Christ.

“Since I’ve been here, I’ve learned to journal, and each of my entries starts with a prayer of thanks and ends up with a song. Now I play worship music on Fridays at morning devotionals. My whole life I never thought I’d be talking in front of 130-plus guys about God and faith and changing your life and giving it over to Jesus. I never thought I’d be sharing my songs.”

PSALM 4:8

GREGG “I first heard about the Mission listening to Spirit 105.3 on Thanksgiving in the fall of 2008. I didn’t know at the time why I was so compelled to volunteer, but in hindsight now I know.

“At first I was a little intimidated by the thought of working with homeless men who were battling addictions. But on my first day, my heart melted.

“The Mission was the most loving place I’d experienced in my life, as I watched men battling and overcoming obstacles and staff working with them to help them through the process.

“Still, I asked myself, ‘Why are all these guys spilling out their heart to me?’ About six months after I started volunteering with the Mission’s Mental Health program, someone very close to me started struggling with addiction. And I realized that my work here was God’s way of getting me ready for what I was going to walk through.

“We didn’t know it at the time, but the guys in the program I was helping were helping me more than I was helping them. God was getting me ready for a battle I didn’t know was coming. Those men were showing me total surrender and trusting in God. Inspired by them, I started listening, and being totally open. As a result, He was totally there to guide me through every step of the way—and that made all the difference.”

The success of this program is also evident in the relationships that have been forged and the trust that’s been developed. Relationships and trust lead to change.”

To serve, rescue and transform those in greatest need through the grace of Jesus Christ

SERVE We are called to demonstrate God’s love by helping those in greatest need by first providing the essentials of food, shelter, and security. Only then can we help them move into lasting change in their lives.

RESCUE When basic needs are met and the foundation of real relationships have been laid, people are more willing to open their hearts and minds to the teaching and ministry we offer. Then the real work can begin.

TRANSFORM With real skills, true faith, and a profound change in perspective, the people we help are able to not only live independent and healthy lives, but also to give back to others with insight and empathy.
