The History of Idaho Falls Rescue Mission
Established in 1998, Idaho Falls Rescue Mission has been serving the Idaho Falls area for twenty-four years. The Mission was started by a group of Christians with the purpose and desire to share God’s love with the community.
The Mission is currently in the process of revamping and restructuring to meet the greater need of the Idaho Falls area.

I have served on the IFRM Board of Directors for 5-6 years, the last two as president. I received Jesus as my Savior and Lord in 1985, taking the Cure from 16 years of addiction. I told Jesus at that time that if He cured me, I would do anything He asked. Since then, we have had many grand adventures, one is serving as a missionary in Liberia, working with ex-child soldiers from the civil wars. I am honored and excited to serve our community on the IFRM Board of Directors.
