Mission
inExcelsis is a faith-based nonprofit in St. Louis, Missouri that exists to retrieve the dignity of individuals, families, veterans, and displaced youth experiencing homelessness, ignite their reintegration into community, and walk alongside them as they achieve lasting stability. Rooted in the conviction that true transformation begins with connection, we meet our neighbors in St. Louis where they are. In shelters, at encampments, on the streets, and every at the inExcelsis Outreach Center. Guided by Patient Compassion, Intentional Respect, and Unconditional Love and grounded in the conviction that true transformation begins with connection. We deliver four integrated programs that carry our neighbors from first contact through permanent housing and beyond.
Program accomplishments
- Community Fellowship (ComFe)Community Fellowship is inExcelsis's weekly Saturday gathering, serving as the organization's primary point of relational contact with unhoused neighbors in the St. Louis region. Each Saturday, guests share a meal, build community, and connect to essential services delivered on-site and through ComFe-initiated case management: vital-document recovery (birth certificates, certificate of homelessness and state identification), housing advocacy and landlord mediation, first-month rent and application-fee assistance, clothing, food, crisis and trauma support, and referrals to partner agencies. In the calendar year 2025, ComFe served 374 unique individuals, with 45% returning across multiple quarters a measure of sustained engagement rather than one-time contact. Many of the organization's long-term outcomes, including permanent housing placements, originate at a Saturday gathering.Expenses $106,049
- Winter Safe Haven is inExcelsis's emergency cold-weather shelter program, activated when overnight temperatures reach 25F or below between mid-November and March 31. WSH places families with children, veterans, and high-vulnerability individuals into private motel rooms, preserving family unity and personal dignity that congregate shelter settings cannot. During the 202425 season (mid November 2024 - March 31), WSH sheltered 26 families and 43 children across 482 hotel-room nights and directly supported the transition of two families into permanent housing.Expenses $51,014
- Dignity on Wheels (DoW)Dignity on Wheels is inExcelsis's mobile hygiene program, delivering a fully equipped four-stall shower trailer to partner sites across the St. Louis region from March through mid-November. In 2025, the program logged 616 check-ins from 298 unique individuals across nine active host sites including MoNetwork, the Cass Avenue and 10th Street pallet-shelter village, Wellston Loop, the Shaw neighborhood, and the St. Louis County Library system. Beyond hygiene access, DoW functions as an outreach anchor: the predictable weekly presence at each site creates a trusted relational touchpoint that has drawn participants into inExcelsis's other programs and into external housing and health services. In May 2025, the program was activated outside its standard service calendar to provide emergency hygiene response showers, towels, and hygiene kits to residents of The Ville displaced by the tornado that struck St. Louis.Expenses $97,505
- Street Sanctuary Street Sanctuary is inExcelsis's discipleship and pastoral-care ministry, meeting unhoused individuals wherever they are for prayer, spiritual support, and one-on-one relational engagement. The program has been instrumental in helping participants reconcile with estranged family members and sustains continuity of care between the organization's material-support programs.
- Welcome Home is inExcelsis's housing-transition program, furnishing apartments for guests moving from shelter, motel stays, or the streets into permanent housing. Volunteer teams, in partnership with church and community donors, assemble beds, kitchenware, linens, and essential household items before the guest's move-in date reducing one of the most common barriers to sustained tenancy. In 2025, Welcome Home supported 14 household transitions originating from Community Fellowship, Thursday Bible Study, Winter Safe Haven, and partner referrals.
