Fiscal Year 2025

We invite you to visit our facility, take a tour, and experience the love and care occurring at URM – thanks to your giving and serving. You will get a firsthand look at what God is doing here! URM provides our guests with clean clothing, meals, shelter in a safe, warm environment, bible study, educational programs, job preparation, and minor medical help when its needed. We strive to be so much more than a homeless shelter … salvation and life change happens here! We had 47 decisions for Christ made this last year!  Praise the Lord.
