Thank you to all those who reached out to me desiring more information about The Fountain of Life Rescue Shelter. I pray this post answers your questions and addresses your concerns. If after reading this you still need to speak with someone regarding this ministry, reach out to me and I will direct you to the appropriate staff member.

The Fountain of Life Rescue Shelter is located at 612 E. Clay Street in Thomasville, GA. Its main mission is to serve those who need emergency shelter. Currently, the rescue center is open Wednesday through Sunday beginning at 6:00 p.m. Additional nights are added when severe weather conditions are forecasted. It is our goal and desire to operate 7 days a week. Funding from businesses, organizations, churches, and individuals is greatly needed to accomplish this goal. The Fountain of Life Rescue Shelter is a 501(c) organization and heavily relies on the support of others. All financial donations are tax deductible.

The Fountain of Life Rescue Shelter can accommodate 16 clients. It is our prayer to expand our impact and ability to safely provide shelter for more clients. Please be prayerful about your part in helping us accomplish this mission. Not only does The Fountain of Life Rescue Shelter offer a safe surrounding to achieve peaceful rest, but it also offers a warm shower, a delicious meal, and a washer and dryer to launder clients’ clothes. All this happens in a loving, family environment. Our advocates care about the needs of each client as if they were biologically connected. The next morning as the clients prepare to leave, each are given take-away bags. Take-away bags are bags filled with various items that can include protein bars, potato chips, candy bars, bottled water, juice pouches, an encouraging note. It is a bag filled with things that help get them through the day. The Fountain of Life Rescue Shelter is an amazing organization to show the love of Christ to your fellow brothers and sisters.

There are several opportunities available to help support the work of the rescue center.

Pray. Please pray for all those who come to the rescue center. Although there are numerous reasons why our clients require emergency shelter, none of the reasons matter. A judgmental atmosphere does not exist at The Fountain of Life Rescue Shelter, only a genuine desire to be of service to those who need us.

Take-Away Bags: You can supply the morning take-away bags for our clients. If you need ideas on what to include in the bags, please reach out to us.

Meals: You can supply a tasty meal for our clients to enjoy. We ask you to supply enough food to feed 20 people when doing this. It’s a great outreach for churches, especially youth groups to fellowship and provide this service. If you are interested in providing a meal, contact us to see which days are currently available.
