"The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field" ( Matthew 9 : 37,38)
The goal of the Outreach Services at the Boston Rescue Mission is to establish relationships with the less fortunate of Boston who are living on the streets. We strive to forge these relationships in a manner that reflects the love, grace and compassion of Jesus Christ. Most people living on the streets are familiar with the pain of people diverting their eyes as they walk by, rather than stopping to help or even acknowledge them. The Outreach Team actively seeks to speak with each person and offer them an example of the acceptance they can expect at the Boston Rescue Mission. The Outreach Team lets them know that this is a place they can go and start to overcome their struggles - a place of hope, comfort and care.

On Saturday mornings a group typically consisting of staff, volunteers, and local church groups that visit the designated site in the Boston Commons. The team brings food, coffee, clothing and fellowship to the homeless community of Boston. All are invited back to the Mission for a hot meal where referrals to detox facilities, shelters, counseling programs and other services are offered.
Those wishing to participate in the Outreach Ministry please contact our volunteer coordinator at 617-338-9000 ext. 1230 or email Volunteer@brm.org
