I first came to haven of mercy in 2010 and I was just 25 years old never have been in a situation like this ever before I stayed the first night and they tried to get people to go out and do volunteer work with them we mowed yards all day long and I was told for me volunteering that would go towards my staying there and I worked hard and I would see them all tom taking all that money people donated and putting it right in his own pocket and then we went and worked all day for a new start up company in Johnson City they needed clothes because it was a rag company to make washrags and towels so the haven sold a lot of there extra clothes to this company and we loaded it for them and they paid us all 25 dollars each and when I get back to the haven tom came up to me and asked how much did you all make today and I told him he was wanting me to give him the 25 dollars I made to him I was told for staying there you had to pay 5 dollars a night for staying or go out with them in the mornings and volunteer with them mowing I had already been going out mowing with them so I wasn't going to give up my 25 dollars and the store they are running tom pockets most of that money and grant you are a wolf in sheep's clothing I could bet you are the antichrist this is really a corrupt place all the food in the kitchen had cockroaches crawling on it I was homeless and I wouldn't eat the food I have no reason to lie about these people so people do some investigating into where you donate your money to first please and grant would pull up in his 60 thousand dollar vehicles him and his wife grant and his wife also went on a weeks cruise overseas when I stayed there for 3 days I couldn't handle anymore so I got out I am blessed today and I do also donate and give back but not to this place shut the haven of mercy down they are some good people that work there but alot of drug sales go on and alot of illegal activity drugs being thrown over fence God bless it does get better.

The volunteers of Haven of Mercy are always eager to serve you in their thrift shop and are so grateful for any act of servitude. They truly make a difference in the lives of men in our area.

New in town and without a place to stay (July 2016), I spent the night here 1 night. No bed sheets, wires hanging out of ceiling, beds set up in living room (SERIOUS overcrowding!!), rat poison open in kitchen, whole meal eating in beds, improper sanitation and washing facilities. A lice/roach/ rat/fire/ infestation and immorality situ begging to break out. Guys at door took my meds for security/ angrily gave me back wrong items--like I should have been grateful to have the bottles back at all. Pastor appears to not be working with other ministers--always a bad sign; but I am not sure on this. Do not give ANY money to this group; this well intentioned but failing [ministry] hurts people and needs to die.
