Union Gospel Mission Twin Cities

Lives are Transformed at Union Gospel Mission Twin Cities

About Us

Union Gospel Mission Twin Cities (UGMTC) opened its doors more than 120 years ago to feed, shelter and share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with Saint Paul dock workers, laborers and lumberjacks. Through the years, our programming evolved to meet the changing needs of men, women and children experiencing hunger, homelessness and addiction. Our emergency shelter provides guests with food, shelter and vital care—including on-site mental health services.  Once immediate needs are met, our staff walk alongside residents for up to two years, providing Bible study, professional counseling, group therapy, education, mentorship, job-skills training, early childhood education, addiction recovery and financial literacy instruction needed to thrive and live successfully in the community.
