Rescue Mission

Frederick, 400 block South Street
This attractive old home serves the Frederick Rescue Mission. Evidently, there is a fund campaign and a remodeling effort underway. I appreciated the Beacon Lighthouse sign writ large; " Jesus Christ - the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow." Amen. Certainly this message has been contested by several heretical sects which would like to rewrite the words of our Lord as recorded in the canon of the New Testament-or politely ignore them when they challenge the secular values they have adopted. Recently, one of these types of missions was criticized by the TEC Bishop of Washington for their Evangelical effort and constancy in their doctrines reflected in this quotation. We may do well to remember that it is often those on the fringes who benefit most from these missions. I believe the Rescue Mission follows the example of our Lord in showing compassion and providing material comfort, and also follow his command to teach in his name.
