About City
Rescue Mission
For more than 65 years, City Rescue Mission has helped those experiencing homelessness in the Oklahoma City metro. A hot meal and safe place to stay are just the beginning. We’re the first stop on the path back to hope.
Our mission is to lead our community by serving people experiencing and at risk of homelessness with help, hope, and healing, in the spirit of excellence, under the call of Christ.
Our Core Values
We are called to love others in the same way Christ loves us.
At City Rescue Mission, we believe the Bible to be inspired by God and infallible. We believe in the Holy Trinity and in the deity of Christ. We understand that the Holy Spirit makes holy living possible in us, and, that, as believers, we will be resurrected to live again in a perfect world. Until then, we serve God and the poor as a nondenominational ministry based upon the principle that believers are united through Christ Jesus without regard to gender, religious, ethnic, or class differences.
Christ-Centered
As followers of Christ, we are called to love others in the same way He loves us. Our approach is to meet people where they are and demonstrate Christ’s love through our actions and service. We embrace individuals from diverse backgrounds, races, and beliefs and extend to all unconditional love, respect, and compassion. We believe that everyone deserves a chance to live with dignity and purpose and we are committed to helping our clients achieve their goals and build a brighter future.
Empowerment
We believe that every person has the ability to overcome challenges and achieve their goals. We strive to create an environment where our clients can access the resources, skills, and support they need to regain their independence and lead fulfilling lives. We are committed to helping our clients recognize their strengths, cultivate resilience, and achieve their full potential.
Accountability
We hold ourselves accountable for the services we provide and our operations. We are transparent about our policies, procedures, and finances, ensuring we are meeting the needs of our clients in the most effective way possible.
Collaboration
We believe that we are stronger as a collective. To this end, we encourage a feeling of togetherness amongst our clients and team, and actively collaborate with other service providers, government agencies, and community organizations.
Innovation
We strive to find new and creative solutions to address the challenges faced by people experiencing homelessness.
