The Journey of Transformation
The work of rescue can’t move forward without you. Your compassion has helped to move people from despair to hope. Those already on the journey bring hopeful news: around 75% of Boston Rescue Mission residents complete our program on the right track.
People learn how to change harmful habits. They recover and they succeed. They move forward, but they will never forget you.
You have helped to transform lives at risk. So our holiday greeting to you is a simple one: thank you from the bottom of our hearts for helping to transform lives at risk.
Now I’d like to give you a holiday present; a cordial invitation to come down to 39 Kingston Street to see your compassion at work. Please give me a call at 617-338-9000 ext. 1216 and let me know when you’re coming.
And if I don’t see you personally, I’d like to take this time to wish you a happy holiday season and a Merry Christmas.
Blessings!
Rev. John Samaan
President
Boston Rescue Mission
