The Team at Union Mission of Roanoke Rapids

THE UNION MISSION TEAM

In 1951, Carson Blanton founded Union Mission out of a sincere commitment to share the love of God with homeless people in his community. Now 72 years later, Union Mission continues this work through loving acts of kindness, providing food, clothing, shelter, and friendship.

We are proud of our team dedicated to caring for those affected by hunger and homelessness.
