Spiritual Life Services

Spiritual Life services are at the heart of everything we offer at Detroit Rescue Mission Ministries. Participation in these services is voluntary, but we pray that they are offered with love and devotion to bless those who are ready to take part in them. These services are available to current and past residents of our programs, neighborhood residents, and also DRMM Staff Members and Board Members alike.

Devotions and Chapel Services — Offered on a daily and weekly basis, for residents and staff. Many of our residents have deep regret from past experiences. A key component of spiritual life counseling is to emphasize God’s willingness to forgive those who seek forgiveness. And for those who have been wronged, we share God’s ability to “make all things new.”

The Detroit Rescue Mission Ministries’ Choir — Participation in the DRMM Choir has proven to be a key component of the substance abuse treatment aftercare services for graduates in addition to providing a support-system to current clients. The Choir has performed at numerous events and public engagements throughout the Detroit area and is truly an inspiration to behold.

Bible Studies — A spiritually-oriented support group is offered at each location.

Seasonal Programs — These programs are developed for staff, residents, and board members. They include Christmas, Easter, Martin Luther King Day, Mothers and Fathers Day, and Veterans Day.

Partnering with Local Fellowships — DRMM welcomes the opportunity to partner with local church organizations to become involved in ministering to residents of Detroit Rescue Mission Ministries. We would also like to encourage our neighboring fellowships to continue to minister to the graduates of our programs when they re-enter the community. For more information, call (313) 993-4700, or email info@drmm.org.

Leading Individuals to Christ — Our Spiritual Life programs are designed to educate individuals for the first time about Jesus Christ and to lead those who have strayed away, back to him.

Spiritual Assessment and Counseling — Offered to residents in treatment, shelter, and transitional housing programs.

DRMM’s Commitment to Spiritual Life

The Detroit Rescue Mission Ministries is a faith-based nonprofit organization. Our mission, which is rooted in spreading the gospel of the love of Jesus Christ, is not only what has sustained our organization for more than a century of human service, but is what drives us to meet the growing demands of our community and those in need.

All DRMM programs provide spiritual life services onsite. From daily chapel services to bible study classes, DRMM programs are structured in a way that help welcome and encourage a relationship with God.

Although DRMM is a faith-based organization, our programs never force anyone to participate in our spiritual life activities. Our staff simply provides access and invites participation.

We believe our spiritual life component in our programs is what drives our high rate for success, helping us to rebuild lives and impact the communities we serve.
