Review for Beacon Rescue Mission, Dunn, NC, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

The Beacon Rescue Mission is truly a lighthouse. The individuals and families that are served get a hand UP not a hand out. Yes they get a place to stay but there are rules. No drugs or alcohol allowed. Food is provided but they cook their own meals, wash their own dishes and clothes, and clean up after themselves. They have to leave during the day to look for a job. They can get financial advice and even save towards getting their own place to live. The gospel is shared with them and a Bible. Most of the people that come here end up getting a job and their own place to live. They have a real chance to get back on their feet it's up to them what they do with it. I can't say enough good things about the Directors and staff! I helped my church in volunteering to renovate an unfinished space that became their E32 emergency (below freezing) shelter that is used during the cold winter nights so that anyone that needs shelter has a warm place to sleep. I can definitely say that this is a model shelter where the love of Jesus is demonstrated!
