Witness Your Support In Action

🌟 Transforming Lives Together 🌟

We are incredibly proud to highlight Ernestine as one of the amazing guests whose life has been changed thanks to the generosity of our donors. 🙌

Ernestine’s journey is one of true resilience. When she and her son came to us, we knew we had to help. Through your support, we were able to fund the repairs on Ernestine`s car, giving her the confidence to search for employment. And when we learned that she secured a job, we were beyond excited to provide her with two sets of scrubs to help her start her new role the very next week! 🚗💼

Ernestine’s story is a powerful reminder of how your donations make a real difference. It’s not just about fixing cars or buying scrubs – it’s about giving people like Ernestine the chance to rebuild their lives with hope and dignity. ❤️

A huge THANK YOU to all our donors for making these life-changing moments possible. Together, we’re transforming lives and shining light where it`s needed most. ✨

🌟 Big News! 🌟

We are beyond proud to share that Janice has been approved for her very own apartment! 🎉 Her determination and perseverance have paid off, and we couldn’t be happier for her! While we will miss "Aunt Janice" here at the Mission, we are so excited for this new chapter in her life. 🏡

Janice’s journey began on 7/1/24 when she accidentally walked into the Admin building at City Union Mission and met our wonderful team member, Troy, who took her to our Women and Family Center. Little did she know, that meeting would lead her to a life-changing experience. She thought she knew about God, but through her time at the Mission, she truly found Him. It’s only by God`s grace that she now has a place to call home! 🙏✨

During her stay, the Mission staff not only provided her with a Bible, but they showed her endless love, patience, and support. Chapel nights were a chance for Janice to grow spiritually, and through those connections, she found her way to Redeemer Church. She’s even started membership classes! ✝️

Janice is a shining example of faith, perseverance, and the power of community. She’s never afraid because she knows God is with her. 🙌 We’re so grateful to have been part of her journey and to have witnessed her transformation.

Janice may say she can never repay us, but the truth is, it’s our absolute pleasure to love and serve her. God is GOOD! 🙌💖

🌟 We recently had the privilege of representing City Union Mission at the Health Resource Fair hosted by Advent Health in Shawnee Mission! 🌟

It was an amazing opportunity to connect with social workers and community organizations across the Kansas City area. We were able to share more about the services we provide at City Union Mission while also learning about valuable resources available to help our guests and participants.

One exciting connection made at the event was with an agency that could provide memory services for one of our program participants, a key resource to support their recovery and independence.

Events like this are vital in helping us offer the best support to those we serve, and they are a big part of why we believe Hope Lives Here. 💙

🌟 Meet Dorothy 🌟

Dorothy came to City Union Mission with a heart full of hope and a desire to break free from the grip of drugs and alcohol. She knew it was time to make a change—not just for herself, but for her kids and her grandkids.

Though she felt like she had no life left to live, Dorothy has five grandkids who she dreams of making proud. While they don`t always see her, she’s determined to be the grandma they look up to.

Since arriving at City Union Mission, Dorothy has found hope and peace. She’s surrounded by an amazing team that has helped her discover her purpose. Through Bible study and prayer, Dorothy has learned that God loves her, and she now feels His presence in her life every day.

She’s filled with gratitude, knowing that she’s on a new path—one full of faith, strength, and purpose. Dorothy is excited about the future because she knows the best is yet to come. 🙏

Thank you, Dorothy, for sharing your incredible journey with us. Your story is a testament to the power of change, faith, and God`s love. 🙌

🌟 Meet Kristy 🌟

Kristy’s journey started at a young age, in a world surrounded by drugs, abuse, and unhealthy relationships. For years, she struggled with self-worth, feeling unloved and stuck in a cycle she couldn’t break. She didn’t know how to escape, but deep down, she knew this couldn’t be her life forever.

Then, something changed. Kristy woke up one day and decided enough was enough. With the help of City Union Mission, she took the first step toward a brighter future, and her transformation has been nothing short of amazing.

✨ 118 days of sobriety ✨ A renewed mind and heart ✨ Newfound love for herself and a relationship with God ✨ Saved by Jesus Christ and Baptism on the horizon ✨ Parole SIS probation granted ✨ SSI being restored

Kristy is living proof that change is possible. There’s always hope, and there’s always a way forward.

Let’s all celebrate her strength and courage. 🙌💖
