History
The Eureka Rescue Mission was established in 1967 by David H. Eitzen in what was then known as the Bay Hotel, located at 110 2nd Street in Eureka, California. (The Mission is still at this location). When the Mission first opened, only the first floor of the then four story building was usable due to code restrictions. The Mission had 15 available beds by the end of 1967. The lot and building were purchased for $12,000. Our current Executive Director, Bryan Hall Sr., has been with the Eureka Rescue Mission since 2006. Today the Mission is comprised of a Women & Children's Shelter which offers housing for approximately 35 women and children, a Men's Shelter which houses 90 men, a Thrift Store, and Executive Office. Services at the Men's Shelter have been expanded to include the Men's New Life Discipleship Program. A women's program is being prayerfully considered for future expansion at the Women & Children's Shelter.
