Hope for the hurting...
Reaching the poor with the love and the power of the gospel...
In November 2020, Valley Mission purchased the old Metro Gym, which is being transformed into a vibrant hub for community support.
Our new facility, opening soon, will offer a wide range of resources designed to provide support and hope for individuals and families in Pocatello. This inclusive center will house a weekly food pantry, laundromat, emergency shelter, commercial kitchen and dining area, offices for Valley Mission, and space for local agencies to provide on-site support. Our new Transformational Living Program . scheduled to launch in fall/winter 2025, will provide a comprehensive pathway for individuals seeking a fresh start.

STREET REACH Is Growing
Our Street Reach initiatave brings Valley Mission services directly to the community. By visiting homeless encampments throughout Pocatello, our team provides essential supplies and invites individuals to connect with Valley Mission and partner agencies for long-term support. This outreach is helping us build bridges to other vital community resources.
We are excited to be able to send out 2 teams weekly. These teams will allow us to connect with more people who are struggling to get the help they need to get off the streets and into safe and secure housing.
This is a high-risk ministry and does require some physical ability and agility.
Please keep this in mind when considering this opportunity. For the safety of the team and those we serve, all volunteers must be 18 years of age or older.

Things moving in the right direction!
We have one bid in and one in the works. Both sound exciting as they can start the food pantry portion fairly quickly once we get the funds for that. We will keep you updated on the actual costs as they become known.
We do have several grants out, are working on some fundraising events and working to invite some new donors to join in. So what we need in the meantime is prayer!
We will begin our RAMP events next week, June 18. Reach Access Mobile Partnership is a collaboration of agencies, a traveling veterinarian, clothing and more. Very exciting to finally get this going agian this year.
Please keep praying for our neighbors on the streets!
