We have served as Chairman of the Board for 3 Rescue Missions, the Executive Director of Santa Barbara Rescue Mission, on the Board of Citygate Network for 7 years and co-founder of 2 Rescue Missions. We have worked with over 90 Ministries across the US, Canada, and Jamaica. Q: What specific experience do you have in Rescue Ministry?Ī: We understand the unique needs of Rescue Ministries having spent over 35 years responding to the non-profit sector’s need for high quality architectural design and consulting. It might be like you living in a house for a long time that you really don’t like how it works for your family, but you will make do because it costs less. Also, it will probably cost more in the long run due to their lack of experience and the facilities will not function as well. Q: We have a local architect who will donate his services Shouldn’t we just use him?Ī: See the first question. Because we have worked with so many ministries, we are able to be so efficient with my time and fees, that even after combining my fees with the local architects, you will actually end up paying less in the long run, the fees for architecture is a very, very small portion of the overall costs.

Q: Won’t it cost more to have you come and design our facility and hire a local architect?Ī: No! In the long run, it will save you money, plus time and frustration. With our expertise and background in the design phase, and working in conjunction with a local architect, you will get the very best facilities and the highest return on your investment. The same goes for a Rescue Mission design: it is not a church, a home, an apartment, a commercial building…! Yes it has walls, doors, windows, offices, a chapel, dorms, etc., but how it functions is different than all those other types of buildings. We like to use the analogy of taking your Mercedes into a VW mechanic to be worked on: they ask, aren’t they both cars, with an engine, doors, windows, a transmission, carburetor…? Yes, but the VW mechanic doesn’t have the expertise, tools, parts, and specific knowledge to do the best job for you.

Q: Should we hire a local architect? Don’t they all know how to design a Rescue Mission?Ī: Yes, you need a local architect, but also need an expert in Rescue Mission design. We will also guide you in applying for grants on a national basis and design materials to graphically state your case. Because we have worked with so many ministries, we are able to be very efficient with our time saving you money and frustration. Our goal is to get you the very best facilities and the highest return on your investment. We are available for consultation and advice at every step from concept through Design Process. Some require purchasing a piece of land while others use existing property and remodel of current facilities. Some requests are for remodels or expansions while others are built from scratch.
