Christian Care QC

Christian Care QC Rock Island resident Guy Rodgers founded the Rock Island Rescue Mission--later to become Christian Care--in 1916. that houses Christian Care today.

Our Mission.....
By providing safe shelter, support and resources, Christian Care empowers homeless men to make positive changes in every aspect of their lives. His passion was to provide resources for destitute men in the Quad Cities. Originally, the Rescue Mission was simply one room where men could get help with food, clothing, shelter and spiritual nourishment. In 2004, we moved to the new bu

ilding at 2209 3rd Ave. Rodgers continued his life's vocation until his retirement in 1954. Over the years, services grew to include shelter for men, a meal site, a donation center and a 24/7 Crisis Hotline. We take a holistic approach to healing at Christian Care, focusing on the bodies, minds, hearts and souls of our residents. There is no time limit on how long clients can stay; they are welcome to remain with us as long as they are working to improve their lives. Centering on accountability and responsibility, we help our clients to radically change their thinking and lifestyle--and be productive citizens of the community.

A food and clothing drive may seem like a simple act of generosity, but from our side of the doors, we get to see what those donations actually become.

A donated shirt or pair of pants can mean someone has clean clothes to wear after a shower. A pair of socks can mean dry feet for someone who spends much of the day walking. Food placed in a donation box becomes part of a meal for someone who may not know where their next one is coming from
