History

The Rochester Outreach Center began as a dream of Soul Harbor Christian Fellowship and Pastor Dale DePeel.

Envisioning a Christ centered community in which every person, regardless of disadvantage, is connected to the support and resources they need to beat their odds, contribute in community, and redirect their future. Soul Harbor’s primary mission has always been reaching the people who need a second chance. Through a series of events 10,000 square feet became available essentially for free at 2450

This shelf is normally full of blankets for our unhoused neighbors, and with the cooler nights beginning to set in, we are receiving more and more requests from these individuals for blankets. If you have blankets you would be willing to part with, or if you are able to make blankets, please consider donating them to The Salvation Army.
