Since 1902
helping people rebuild their lives through a variety of time-tested and proven life-changing programs.
Our History
Founded in 1902, Union Gospel Mission Twin Cities (UGMTC) is a Christian ministry dedicated to serving people facing homelessness, poverty, or addiction in our community. By meeting physical, spiritual, emotional, and educational needs, our Mission is changing lives!
The Mission helps people rebuild their lives by providing safe shelter, nutritious food, medical care, and a broad variety of life-changing programs for children and adults.
Our goal is to encourage each person to value themselves as God values them, to see the gifts they have to offer the world, and to help them seek out a bright future as a fully contributing member of our community.

Help with meals and Medical Screening
Even in the COVID-19 crisis, Union Gospel Mission Twin Cities is open. While we have cut back on some volunteer opportunities, we still have two important opportunities for people in our community to get involved: served meals and be a medical screener at our Men’s Campus.
