One Divine VisionThe Frederick Rescue Mission seeks to rescue lives from poverty, homelessness and chemical dependency. We exist to meet the needs of hurting and broken people while inviting them into the abundant life Christ offers to all. Every man that enters with a heart surrendered to God and a cooperative attitude should never have to see a prison, jail, homeless shelter, rehab center or rescue mission again. He should never have to sleep under a bridge, in an abandoned house or out in the woods again. A changed life will call on Jesus instead of alcohol, cocaine, heroin, and any other kind of drug. The goal here is to see lives changed for eternity, now and forever.
