Review for The Gospel Mission, Sioux City, IA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have been involved with the Sioux City Gospel Mission for the last 5 years. In that time I have seen Siouxlanders perception of their ministry move from one of "for drunk, down and outers" to realizing "they not only serve the homeless but affect the lives of whole families in this tri-state area".

Seeing residents take responibility and pride in caring for the facility. Recently a resident who is legally blind and working at the mission went from being an angry man to a pleasant, humerous gentle man.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

Building relationships not only with staff but also individuals who use their services.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

Always willing to help in anyway they can.
