I have been a Maconite all of my life, and I've witnessed first hand how the Macon Rescue Mission has ministered to the needs of women and children. LIkewise, I've seen men who had no other place to turn get their lives turned around, find meaningful employment, and become productive citizens - all because of their connection with the Macon Rescue Mission.

Wayne Bevill was the driving force to bring the Mission into the mainstream of Macon and Central GA as he connected with affluent business people and solicited their financial help. The MRM reached beyond simply assisting the needy (though they have always done that better than any charitable organizations locally) to raising money to build a new facilty and house more families.

I have always been a huge fan of the mission's because of the way they meet the needs of people physically, emotionally, and especially spiritually.
