Statement of Faith

The spiritual beliefs upon which Springs Rescue Mission (SRM) was founded and by which it continues to be driven are outlined below. We ascribe to a non-denominational evangelical confession of faith and adherence to these beliefs is a common requirement for all SRM employees. We believe and affirm that:

  1. Jesus Christ is God and He came to Earth fully man and fully God.
  2. That He was born of a virgin, and He is perfect and without sin.
  3. He died as the perfect sacrifice for the sins of mankind.
  4. He was buried but three days later He rose again triumphant.

We are a member of the Association of Gospel Rescue Missions (AGRM). The first rescue mission started in 1876. Today, AGRM consists of 290 member missions across the world. In 2004, AGRM members provided 37 million meals, 13 million nights lodging, and 20 million pieces of clothing.

The Mission is interdenominational (statement of faith) and works with various churches and individual volunteers. No one is denied services because of race, color, creed, sex, or national origin.

The Mission does not accept government subsidy. Instead, most funding comes from private contributions from individuals from such as yourself.
