A Quiet Legacy of Giving
“Rockford is our home. When someone in our home is hurting, we hurt with them. Rockford Rescue Mission has a 60-year track record of serving as the hands and feet of Jesus in our community, and His words in Matthew 25 resonate deeply with our family. When we serve the hungry, the thirsty, the naked, the sick and the stranger, we are directly serving Him.”
The Brown Bag Blessing
One day in 1964, a woman came to the Mission carrying a brown paper bag. She handed it to Director Ray Stewart and said, “A friend of mine wants the Mission to have this.”
