MORE THAN A DAY SHELTER
We are the only day shelter for homeless in Springfield, MO. We provide essential services to men and women. Beyond just being a shelter we strive to create a safe community for those who find themselves lost.
WE LOVE AS CHRIST LOVES
We love others as Christ loves us. Jesus taught Christians how to love through his ministry, teachings and sacrifice. Our mission is to serve others regardless of where they are at in life. We are not perfect at serving but we do our best to grow in our faith as the body of Christ.
THE VCHC IS A HOME
We believe that through community we can break the cycle of homelessness. Our ministry seeks to build relationships with those who have lost hope. We do this by providing their basic needs but also taking the time to get to know them personally.
SAFETY IS IMPORTANT
Our ministry does its best to keep our neighbors, volunteers and donors safe. We have zero tolerance for alcohol and illegal drugs on our premises and we do our best to protect others from violence both verbal and physical.
