To Our Community, As spring breathes new life into our city and the trees begin to bloom, my thoughts turn to the promise of Easter. For all of us at The Bowery Mission, Easter is more than a holiday — it’s a powerful reminder of God’s ability to bring hope and renewal to even the […]
To Our Community, As we begin another year of service to our neighbors in need, I’m reflecting on the tremendous support our friends and partners provided this past year. Together, we met urgent needs of our New York neighbors experiencing homelessness and hunger — and journeyed with them on their path to life transformation. As […]
Dear Friends, Thanksgiving provides a unique opportunity to impact the lives of people across our city who, for whatever reason, aren’t included in holiday celebrations. It could be because they aren’t welcome at the family table, they are far from family or they no longer have any family. As the heart of New York City […]
Here at The Bowery Mission, we encounter so many people at their lowest point, when they’ve been disrespected, ridiculed, beaten down, taken advantage of and deprived of their most basic rights. But because of Christ’s death and resurrection, we know darkness and despair are never the end of the story — there is always the […]
After the past few challenging years, we’re so excited to see more of our supporters, volunteers and partners engaging with us, especially in person at meal services, classes and more. The pandemic continues to have long-term effects for neighbors facing homelessness and poverty and, as some supports have gone away, The Bowery Mission continues to […]

Providing help and hope during the dangerous summer months While many of us have been able to enjoy the summer in the city, our neighbors living on the streets have been trying their best to survive the heat. Facing heat stroke, sunburn and dehydration, it’s not only difficult, but dangerous — even deadly. And with […]
Dear Bowery Mission community, The Bowery Mission mourns with the Black community in this trying time. Words cannot possibly convey the grief, anger and sadness we feel in response to Saturday’s racist massacre, targeting and taking Black lives in Buffalo. These are people who matter to God and to us, and their lives were taken […]
There is always an opportunity for second chances and for life to be restored. Perhaps now, more than ever, we live in a world that questions if real life change is possible. But at The Bowery Mission, we know that new life, healing and reconciliation are possible in our lives and our world — even […]
Thank you for offering the hope of Christmas to our neighbors in need. During the special holiday season, gathering and celebrating with our friends and family is something we look forward to. But for many people experiencing homelessness across our city, gathering with loved ones will not be a reality this holiday season. So, in […]
Such an important time of the year at The Bowery Mission Thanksgiving is my favorite day of the year at The Bowery Mission — this will be my 17th one here. It’s my favorite because I get to work side-by-side with so many dedicated staff members and volunteers to serve our community. On a day […]
