Silver City Gospel Mission

We are dedicated to serving the physical, spiritual, and emotional needs of those in need of food, shelter, and other assistance. As a community and as a team we strive to be an oasis of welcome, safety, cleanliness and emotional support to people who are homeless, and to individuals and families living at or below the poverty line in Silver City, New Mexico. Religious participation is optional and is not required to receive assistance.
Meals; Morning Market and Senior Pantry food distributions; Pantry to the People mobile food assistance; clothing; showers and laundry; and Sierra House shelter for women and children. Services reach Silver City and Grant County neighbors experiencing homelessness or low incomes. Mobile distributions usually serve Santa Clara, Bayard and Hurley, with occasional distributions elsewhere. Spanish-language help is available as needed, and wheelchair access is available.
