Come and be Safe and Warm

In the last ten years the cost of heating a home with fuel oil has more than doubled. Heating a home with electricity has risen in cost by one third.

Wages have not kept pace.

On top of this, the recent surge in unemployment has forced more people out of their homes to live in cars, with friends and anywhere they can.

We don't want anyone to have to sleep outside on one of our bitter, cold nights. Everyone is welcome here. We'll make up beds on the chapel floor if we have to.


With help from good friends like you, Washington City Mission has become the largest shelter in Southwestern Pennsylvania. Our doors are open every day of the year to care for people in need. The food is good. The beds are warm. The staff is friendly and helpful.

We offer the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all who hunger and thirst for the blessing and love of God.

To send a gift to pay for the heat expenses please click the donate now button to make a donation at our secure service. Any remaining funds will provide food, and to help cover the costs of providing shelter.
