Purpose Statement: Partnering with the Inland Northwest to reach the poor with the love and power of the gospel so they may become God-dependent, contributing members of society.
In their words: UGM partners explain why they’ve teamed up with us.
As our founder Albert Arend once said,
“Our aim is not free meals, but freed persons; not free beds, but free beings.”
Current Executive Director Phil Altmeyer puts it like this:
“We are not here to keep people homeless. We believe God has something so much better for them.”
Because we see all people as being created in the image of God with equal value and worth, the Union Gospel Mission places a high value on diversity and the equitable treatment of all individuals.
The Union Gospel Mission is welcoming toward all who come to us in need. We seek to provide a safe-and healing environment for those desiring to break the cycle of homelessness and addiction and turn their lives in a new direction.
Union Gospel Mission recognizes that each person regardless of race, color, ethnicity, age, gender, gender identity, creed, religious affiliation, and/or sexual orientation is created in the image of God and deserves to be treated with compassion, grace, care, dignity, and respect. Subject to the United States Constitution, and all applicable state and federal laws, UGM does not discriminate in the provision of emergency services.
