About Us

At the San Diego Rescue Mission, we believe our work is a true calling to serve others. We believe this is more than a job – rather it’s a calling to love our neighbors and those in need the way that Jesus would. Our organization is built on values and beliefs that speak to the power of Christ and his ability to transform lives. In our programs, we offer a holistic approach to recovery and rehabilitation so we can create a safe haven for men, women and children who have experienced homelessness. Our staff are a dedicated, hard-working and compassionate team with one goal in mind – to see lives changed and to keep people off the streets permanently. We are looking for like-minded individuals who have a passion to serve with excellence. Together, we can change the state of homelessness in our city.

“Feed the hungry, and help those in trouble. Then your light will shine out from the darkness, and the darkness around you will be as bright as noon.” – Isaiah 58:10

Here’s why we love working at San Diego Rescue Mission

With a grateful heart, the presence of God and truly kind coworkers all around, there’s nothing keeping us from working to serve God’s people for His divine purpose. When I go home at the end of the day, I feel like I truly am making a difference in someone’s life and changing it for the better. I love the moral of the organization and how we take the time to congratulate those who worked for us, if it’s their birthday, or even in times of dismay. The culture that we are building at this organization is so wonderful and everyone really works well together with a TEAM attitude.

I love working in Nueva Vida Haven at San Diego Rescue Mission because this is where the Lord chose for me, it was His will, not mine. I have the honor & privilege of working/serving here after going through the overnight shelter & year long program myself. I believe the Lord allows me to work/serve here to be an example of encouraging light to others He brings here to receive Salvation & His transforming Power & Grace.

To God be the Glory.

I can go on and on for days why I love working here at the Mission. I love giving back to the place where I started my journey of recovery and reconciliation with God. · I love serving the lost and down trodden, I once walked in their shoes and know what it feels like to not have anyone to acknowledge that you matter. I am here to encourage them and let them know that they are worthy of having a great life in Christ. I love the fact that we are free to pray and worship God. · I love spreading the Good News to the folks we serve here, they need to know that they are not alone, that God will never leave them nor forsake them. · I LOVE SEEING people’s lives transform. · I love being able to grow in my position and also grow in learning about who God is in my life.

Why do I love working at the Rescue Mission. Community. I love our teams, I love our guests/students. I love the fact the I get to walk alongside the men and women in our programs and encourage them. Brokenness Is a part of life and I feel blessed, that I am able to be part of the journey of healing in our students lives and encourage them in the fact that there is more grace that they could imagine and help them come to the realization of the truth, that they are forgiven. I feel like we have a team that supports each other, encourages each other, challenges each other, and serves one another and for that I am very grateful to work at the San Diego Rescue Mission.
