How to Serve

Who We Are...

Shalom Ministries began as a nationwide effort within the United Methodist Church in 1992 to create effective ministries in urban settings. Two years later, a separate 501(c)3 was created in Spokane that brought together religious, business, political, and social service communities to find solutions to poverty and homelessness. Shalom seeks to build relationships and community amongst people who are disenfranchised. By providing a safe, loving, and accepting environment the door can be opened for healing and renewal, creating a sense of belonging to something greater than one’s self.

Who Are Our Guests?

“In most cases, to be homeless in America is not a sign of laziness or incapacity, but an indicator of people who struggle immensely, both physically and emotionally, to survive against the odds.”

We serve all who come to us seeking to be fed: young and old, men and women of any race or creed. Most are homeless or underemployed; some are fighting addiction or illnesses, and all struggle immensely to survive against the odds.

Meet Jason

Jason came to Shalom 4 years ago in a wheelchair, having lost both his legs below the knees. Jason was homeless, sleeping outside in freezing weather, and frostbite claimed his legs. Today, he’s upright again, and walking thanks to new prosthetic legs. He is grateful for the meals Shalom shared with him during his recovery.

“Many people are hungry for bread that will satisfy their bodies, but they are just as hungry for love that will satisfy their soul.

Many people are naked and need clothes that will protect their bodies. Emotionally, these same people experience a nakedness of soul as they are slowly stripped of their human dignity.

Homelessness is more than just not having a home. Homelessness is being and feeling rejected, unwanted, unloved, and uncared for.

Most homeless people have forgotten how the human touch warms the soul and causes us to smile, and all people long for someone to recognize them and to wish them well.”
