LifePath Christian Ministries Overview and Updates

Our Mission is to extend the love of Christ to our neighbors in need by providing food, shelter, and a connection to support services.

History:

In 1961, Stuart Shelley and others started planning the work and vision of the York Rescue Mission (the precursor to LifePath Christian Ministries). We opened in 1962 with only two buildings — one for sleeping quarters for homeless neighbors, a small restaurant to serve meals, and a chapel, and the other for the Mission’s superintendent and family.
