Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter meals provide many who would otherwise spend these days alone a special time of enjoyment and encouragement.
Fairhaven Rescue Mission’s Thrift Store is located on the corner of Ninth Street and Philadelphia Street in Covington. The store receives small household appliances and clothing on a regular basis. Hundreds of items are available to our clients at no cost. Our clients receive vouchers from the mission and can shop for their needs and the needs of their families. The clients can receive vouchers on a monthly basis.
Fairhaven Rescue Mission uses many volunteers on a regular basis. If you are interested in volunteering at the mission, please call Mark at 859-491-1027.
The homeless and hurting depend on Fairhaven to meet their physical and spiritual needs … many have no one else. They come here looking for a helping hand and a loving heart – someone to care. I hope these words of appreciation from our clients will bless you.
Incorporated in 1984, Fairhaven Rescue Mission serves the Northern Kentucky / Greater Cincinnati area. Filling a vital community role, Fairhaven Rescue Mission provides Christ-centered programs and services that respond to the physical, spiritual and emotional needs of homeless and hurting men, women and children.
We believe in one God, eternally existing Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
We believe in the virgin birth and absolute Deity of Jesus Christ.
We believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross as a substitutionary sacrifice for our sins and that His shed blood is the only means for the remission of sins.
We believe that the Scripture of the Old and New Testaments are the inspired Word of God and that they are the supreme, final and only authority of faith and life.
We believe that man was created by God in God’s image; he sinned as recorded in Genesis, causing physical and spiritual death.
We believe sin entered into the world by Adam and as a result, the entire human race is born with a sinful nature and spiritually dead.
We believe that when a person receives by faith the Lord Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit regenerates that person into the family of God.
We believe in a future Heaven for the saved and that it is not obtained as the result of good works, but we believe in the maintenance of good works, and holy living as a result of salvation.

The Lord is doing great things in our community, and there are many new and wonderful things to come in Fairhaven’s future. We could not do it without you, our generous friends and God’s faithful servants.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
Your compassion and generosity are such a blessing to those in our care. We thank God for you continuously! Today, I need your help once again to meet a major challenge this summer. With fewer donations coming in over the summer months, it’s more difficult to provide food, shelter and care for the men, women and families seeking help here at the Mission.
To help meet these vital needs, we’re counting on loyal friends like YOU to #MeetTheChallenge by giving generously. Your gift today will help provide meals, shelter and the message of Jesus to those in need. Right now, we anticipate preparing more than 6,000 meals over the summer and opening our doors to provide an additional 1,960 nights of safe shelter.
To make sure we can serve everyone in need during the summer, I would like to ask you to prayerfully consider making a special gift to the Mission today. Your support will make a tremendous difference to people who need you!
Together, you and other faithful friends can help us #MeetTheChallenge this summer. I’m grateful for your continued love and kindness for everyone in our community who is experiencing pain, hunger, and homelessness.
In His service,
Alan Johnson
Executive Director
