Lewis County Gospel Mission Our daytime shelter is open M-F 6:30AM to 2PM and Sat-Sun 6:30AM to 11AM. Everyone is welcome!

We offer jail ministry services, bible study, volunteer opportunities for adults, hot meals, clothing, showers, and tons of other resources for anyone in need. Lewis County Gospel Mission helps meet the needs of hurting people and transforming lives by exercising the love of Jesus Christ in the Lewis County Gospel Mission facility and the Lewis County Jail. Our goal is to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ, provide Christian fellowship, provide for physical needs and to work together with churches and organizations in Lewis County.

“For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me” (Matthew 25:35, 36).

It is that time again! The shelves are VERY bare in the pantry! We rely entirely on donations to stock the pantry. And as the weather cools, the need for afterhours food increases. Here is a list:

Dog & cat food (no, our guests do not eat it themselves, BUT MANY OF THEM DO HAVE PETS!)
Single packs of instant oatmeal
Cups of noodles and other cups of soup
Roman noodles
Canned Chili
Canned stew
Canned soups
Canned Meats, tuna, weenies, spam, ect.
Cups of fruit or pudding, or Jello
small boxes of mac & cheese

POP TOP OR OTHER EASY OPEN CONTAINERS ARE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

As we move into the Holiday Season, The Mission has a few urgent needs:

1.) Turkeys and Ham for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years. The number of people that we are serving is 25 to 30 percent greater than last year.

2.) Breakfast meats are the largest expense item that we often purchase for the Mission meals. Sausage patties, Sausage links, and bacon are important ingredients to add valued protein to the meals.

3.) Do not forget Mission in your holiday giving. There is great need in Lewis County and the surrounding area. Small gifts can make a world of difference. WE have done the math. A gift of 25 cents per month from each person in Lewis County would go a long way to reaching all of the over 800 people who find them selves homless in Lewis County!

Thanks for all of you that make the mission of the Mission Possible!

As I have been working on a Grant Application the last few days, I have been reminded that:

This project (the proposed capital campaign Grant) will create a strategic direction for the Mission as we move to a new decade and the need that will follow. This project will force the Mission to not only think about today or tomorrow, but HOW do social, economic, political changes effect the needs of the people that we serve? We can no longer operate as though only those events in Lewis County Washington affect the people who find their way to the Mission’s doors. The Mission can no longer provide meals seven days a week and think we have “done our part”. We must have vision beyond what will be served for breakfast tomorrow morning. The City of Chehalis needs that vision, Lewis County Needs that Vision, The State of Washinton needs that vision, the US needs that vision, and our world needs that vision.

As Christians, this was clearly the point of the "great commission." The Gospel of Christ should be foundational to everything that we do! Christ showed by example how to treat people, how to get along, how to serve, how to live humbly, how to seek justice and how to walk humbly with God.

Please be praying for the Mission as we continue to serve an ever growing population of homeless and needy people in Lewis County and the surrounding areas.

Thank You! Rollin

And no, this post is not about "Dream Whip". Nor is it about the giant onion that was donated! Although we do have big "dreams" and the Mission is made up of many layers. It is about a very serious issue!

😡Data Attack: The Lewis County Gospel has been the victim of a digital attack on our financial information. As near as we can tell, none of our donor account information was exposed. We have hardened our digital security, had our system reviewed by digital security experts, and have reported the intrusion to the FBI and local law enforcement. We were able to locate a digital footprint that includes the date the malware was loaded to our computers and at least one IP address that data was sent to. In addition, over $40,000. worth of fraudulent transactions were intercepted and recovered.
If you suspect that your information may have been compromised, please notify us at your earliest opportunity. 360-996-4474!
😡

This appears to have been a very targeted attack on the Missions financial security. And we find it very revolting that someone would target us in this manner! It is only because God is looking out for us that this was not catastrophic! We have incurred expenses as a result of this attack that will have a significant impact on an already tight budget.

Thank you to those who support the Mission and its place in the Lewis County community!

We are taking a survey at the Mission today! Do you like your hotdogs smoked? How about just warmed on the grill? Smoked and the grilled? Crispy grilled? Totally burned?

That is what's for lunch today! come by and enjoy a Costco dog of your choice! We will be serving until about 1:30PM or until we run out. I hope everyone is having a great day!

Good Morning! I just wanted to make a quick clarification about the BOOKKEEPING position that the Mission is seeking applications for. This is an inhouse position that requires physical presence at our Chehalis facility. "Remote work" is not available at this time.

08/13/2026

We are looking for a part-time (up to 20 hrs/week) bookkeeper for Lewis County Gospel Mission! If you have bookkeeping experience, a current working knowledge of Quickbooks, and are looking for a new challenge, we'd love to talk to you! Please email our Executive Director, Rollin, at [email protected] or call 360-996-4474. And please share this opportunity with any friends who might be interested!

Those of us who work in the homeless community often find it a challenge to navigate the legal, moral/ethical, community, and financial hurdles across our nation. Here in Lewis County, we are extremely fortunate to have a community that supports OUR local Mission. An example of that support was a recent post asking for "eggs, milk & cheese". The response to that request was overwhelming! THANK YUOU!

Here is a list of things that are needed at the Clothing Counter:

Bandanas
Feminine Care Products
Hand Sanitizer
Hair Conditioner
Ladies Underwear (0-10)
Men's Jeans (32-36)
Men's Jeans (42)
Men's Jeans (44)
Men's Socks
Men's T-shirts (XL-3X)
Men's Underwear (L, XL)

The items in this list are ALWAYS in short supply. Again, thank you for your support!
