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.

2022 SWCA SYNOD ASSEMBLY

“The brokenness of the world and relationships whisper lies of scarcity and consumes us with doubt and certainty that there isn’t Enough, that we aren’t Enough, that God doesn’t work miracles. In faith and in God, there is always Enough because the daily bread we receive promises miracles abundant and sufficient.”

Synod Assembly theme document,
Rev. Toni Casteñeda Carrera
