Today, we celebrate and say farewell to a leader whose impact will be felt for years to come.

Throughout his time at City Rescue Mission, Jeremiah has inspired so many through his leadership, wisdom, faith, and genuine care for others. The words shared in this video are a beautiful reflection of the lives he has touched and the example he has set, not only as our CFO, but also as a mentor, encourager, and friend.

While we are sad to see him go, we are deeply grateful for the legacy he leaves behind and the lasting difference he has made in our mission, our community, and each of us. Thank you, Jeremiah, for leading with purpose and reminding us what it means to serve others well. We wish you every blessing in this next chapter, you will be greatly missed! 💙

Sometimes the mountains in front of us can feel bigger than our strength, our plans, or our ability to overcome them. But Jesus reminds us in Matthew 17:20 that even faith as small as a mustard seed can move mountains.

Whatever you’re facing this week, don’t underestimate what God can do. Keep praying, keep trusting, and keep moving forward in faith. The mountain may look big, but our God is bigger. 🙏💙

This past Sunday, we gathered to rededicate our newly renovated chapel and celebrate as 9 people publicly declared their faith through baptism! What a beautiful reminder that while buildings can be renewed, the greatest transformation comes from Jesus Christ in the hearts of people. ☀️💛

STAFF SPOTLIGHT: Meet Lib! 💚
Quite possibly the coolest bookkeeper around!

When she’s not keeping our books in order, you’ll likely find her rolling into work on her motorcycle (or bicycle!). We’re so thankful for her faithful service and the joy she brings to City Rescue Mission!
