Transitional Assistance Program
One of the most life-changing services Reach & Rescue offers is its Transitional Assistance Program, which helps individuals and families move from homelessness or temporary shelters into safe, stable housing. This process involves more than just handing over keys—it includes furnishing new spaces with donated beds, tables, cookware, and other household essentials to create a true sense of home.
The ministry also supports clients with relocation logistics, referrals to additional services, and ongoing check-ins to ensure their stability. Many recipients of this program are stepping into independence after escaping domestic violence, recovering from addiction, or enduring long-term homelessness. Through this program, Reach & Rescue not only provides a fresh start—but also affirms each person’s worth and potential.

Bible Studies & Spiritual Support
Reach & Rescue Ministries recognizes that true transformation begins from within. That’s why weekly Bible studies and spiritual gatherings are held at shelters and transitional housing locations across Lorain County. These programs create sacred spaces where individuals can encounter the love of God, reflect on scripture, and receive encouragement to walk a new path—no matter their past or current struggles.
Led by compassionate ministry teams, these sessions often include music, prayer, personal testimonies, and group discussions that help participants connect faith to their everyday challenges. Whether someone is newly curious about spiritual matters or returning to a lost sense of faith, these studies provide a nurturing environment for growth, healing, and redemption.
