The Shower of Hope

Trinity Lutheran - Riverside 5969 Brockton Ave, Riverside, California

Over 2,000 Free Showers a month doesn’t describe the impact that we have. From giving people the chance to be clean and healthy, an integral part of our mission is to provide a sense of dignity back to our unhoused Angelenos.

When we operate a site, we don’t just offer showers; we work with community partners to ensure that every guest that comes to our sites have access to meals, clothing, hygiene items, and more importantly, case management. While we recognize showers as a critical need, our goal is to offer our unhoused Angelenos a path out of homelessness and to bring our community together.

God’s work. Our hands – 2022

This day is an opportunity to celebrate who we are as the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America – one church, freed in Christ to serve and love our neighbor.

Service activities offer an opportunity for us to explore one of our most basic convictions as Lutherans: that all of life in Jesus Christ – every act of service, in every daily calling, in every corner of life – flows freely from a living, daring confidence in God’s grace.
