After graduating from Memphis Union Mission’s recovery program, Chris believed his struggles were behind him.

A Place of Refuge and Transformation
As August’s intense temperatures continue across the Mid-South, Memphis Union Mission’s Men’s Cooling Center remains open, providing a safe, air-conditioned refuge for men seeking relief from the dangerous heat.
For many, that first visit becomes the beginning of something far greater than escaping the weather. Through Christ-centered recovery programs, compassionate care, and the hope of the Gospel, men and women are overcoming addiction, preparing for employment, securing stable housing, and restoring relationships with their families. Every day, God is transforming lives and opening the door to a brighter future.
Memphis Union Mission receives no municipal, county, state, or federal government funding. As a member of the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability (ECFA), we are committed to accountability, transparency, and faithful stewardship. With your support, immediate needs are met, hope is restored, and lives are transformed through Christ.
