    This is an amazing place for the community of Fort Wayne. The facility is large and very clean. The staff is amazing and very welcoming.

    They saved my ass…read more I became stranded in Fort Wayne due to unforeseen financial circumstances and stayed here for about two weeks. The staff is generally friendly and helpful except for Mark who seems to be a minimalist when it comes to service. It's clean and fresh bedclothes are offered every night. They serve fairly decent meals at lunch and supper but breakfast consists only of a breakfast bar and coffee. I don't eat wheat so I skipped it every day. My sole complaint is that we had to leave every day, despite the fact that they have many lockers. Since I was stranded here, that means I had to lug a rolling suitcase, heavy backpack, and heavy gym bag all over town whenever I got out. Not fun at all. IMPORTANT ADDENDUM: After a three-night hiatus from the mission, I returned there last night (Labor Day, 20202} and had a rude awakening. Check-in time ends at 10:00 pm and I got there about 9:30. Since residents cannot leave once they enter the premises for the night, I sat just outside the door, catching up on internetwork. At about 9:50, I lit up my last cigarette. Five minutes later a guard named Charles poked his head outside and announced that the facility would be closing at 10 so I finished up the cig and tried to get in. But the door was locked! I knocked and knocked but Charles refused to open it until 10:59, at which point I showed him the current time on my phone. He then proceeded to lecture me (very condescendingly) about how it was past 10 and he couldn't let me stay. On and on he rambled, finally permitting to come in "only because I'm doing you a favor." Apparently he was going by the time on his wristwatch, not the internet time on his computer. When I explained to him how accurate the latter is, he told me I was "disrespecting" him. Really? Pointing this out is NOT disrespectful. His attitude was, though. I wonder if his mama taught him how to be so rude and arrogant. This dude needs some re-education and I suggest that the administration send him to Disney's Magical Customer Experience. "Disney resorts is focused on customers. On their first day of training, new employees learn that their primary goal, no matter their position, is to create happiness. Employees receive regular training so they have the tools to best serve customers and are given the creativity to solve problems in the most magical ways possible." Being homeless and begging for a place to stay is humiliating enough and I told him so. From his reaction, apparently this made him mad. So I did not say another word, which I find is the best approach to people who abuse their authority.

    Is there a place to go, when a man has nowhere else left to go?…read moreThe French foreign legion? The Fort Wayne Rescue Mission. Myself I would chose the later. A person, who drops in can expect to be able receive two free meals a day (Lunch, and dinner). They also might have an option to stay for free, (three days)! And receive free (three meals) a day, with room and board! Along with a lot of other free things! Just take a look at this video, for an explanation. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=RzYsYZ2DwFE America is becoming a very cold place. According to USA Today, more than 50 American cities have now passed "anti-camping or anti-food-sharing laws".... Somehow our city government has not been able to address this issue yet. What I notice is how citizens are still working with homeless people. By providing the three basics of the mission: (food, shelter, clothing). Along with free counseling on the different services the city offers. It can sort of connect people with programs that they did not know about! The politicians aren't really interested - they figure that they can buy your vote with all of the money that they are getting from the wealthy people. If you don't have money, you don't really matter much in our society. The ads on television aren't for you - they are directed at people that actually have good jobs and that can afford to buy the nice little "extras" in life. This is why the city of Fort Wayne really doesn't have much to do with this place. Before, During, After. I I I \O/ _O_ O | ( ) /(( ))\ / \ / \ (()) The "Mission Impossible" team at work. Yelp: I did donate to the missions' store. In order to meet your "user review" rules.
