Volunteers are the HEART of our work!

 

 

Volunteers are the heart-beat and pulse of what we are all about at the Mission. Through their love of our guests, and the selfless giving they provide over and over again, we see the beauty in God's people. These Christian men and women, from all over our great country, come into the mission with a vigor and determination to complete any and all tasks they are given! What a joy to meet so many new faces and see how God is leading their lives.

 

Thank you to all of the many people who have and will pass through our doors at the Bread of Life Mission. Our staff appreciates you, our guests appreciate you and most important God appreciates and sees your heart. You are all jewels. Praise be to him that made you!

Spring Is On It's Way!

It is pretty amazing, that we can provide meals to our homeless guests for less than $2 per meal! With spring, and Easter, just around the corner we are reminded of how God renews. He is the master planner for each of our lives, and he has not forgotten our homeless friends.
With the rainy season pouring down on our city, many of our guests have been visiting us in our Day Shelter, which is open Monday-Friday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Our Day Shelter gives our guests a place to stay warm, relax and renew. We are so thankful for our historic building, and for what it provides our visitors. Can you offer $2 today, or perhaps even $20? Please pray about your donation and do what you can this season to offer a meal.

Seahawks are in the Super Bowl!

It is not every day that our team, in our town, is in the Super Bowl! At the Mission, we are so excited to open our doors and let in our guests to watch this monumental game. We are blessed to have a large screen TV, a warm chapel, and a large kitchen to make some game-day dishes to share. We expect it to be a full house, with lots of laughing and shouting. What a luxury, a place of comfort for our guests - a day free from worry. God is truly good!

75 Years - and Going Strong

It is hard to imagine what life must have been like in Pioneer Square 75 years ago...
Times were certainly different, but yet the need was still the same. There were hungry, homeless men, women and children in need of help. 1939 was the year that Bread of Life Mission was founded. The year that the Lord called upon his people to serve his neediest children. What a wonderful, warm place for him to love his believers back to stability with food, shelter and his Word for direction in their lives. Praise God - his work continues on!

Lord, Thank You For Our Our Holiday Volunteers

Lord, how wonderful it is to see our community members working with the Mission to service those in need. What a lovely sight it is to see the love, each and every holiday, spread to those that are without their families. Praise God for those that you have led to us, to help with their hands this holiday season.

For I know the thoughts and plans that I have for you, says the Lord, thoughts and plans for welfare and peace and not for evil, to give hope in your final outcome. JEREMIAH 29:11

BOLM Roots for the SEAHAWKS!

 

The LifeChange program residents at the Mission got in the Seahawks spirit last night, supporting our football team by passing out free coffee and hot cocoa to eager fans in Pioneer Square. What a great opportunity for our men to serve others. God is good!

WE ARE THANKFUL!

Thanksgiving is just two days away, and we are so thankful for all of our dedicated volunteers and for all of the food donations that have been coming in. What a wonderful city we all live in - where people care enough to act (with acts of kindness by volunteering during the holidays - and with acts of gifts - financial and otherwise).
