In an ever-changing world, Christ has always been at the center of our work. Our Christ-Centered Approach focuses on four key areas:
Loving our neighbor as ourselves, without judgement.
Recognizing that we are complex beings who require complex solutions (biological, psychological, social, and spiritual).
Speaking hard truths: first to ourselves and then into the lives of the people we serve and systems we engage within.
Believing that all lasting growth and healing depends upon the miraculous work of God.
Denver Rescue Mission is a non-denominational Christian organization. We are committed to the following essential truths of biblical Christianity. All employees sign our statement of faith:
Apostles Creed:
I believe in God, the Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried; he descended to hell. On the third day he rose again. He ascended to heaven and is seated at the right hand of God the Father almighty. From there he will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the universal church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting.
