Austin Street Shelter

Matthew 14:15-16   When it was evening, the disciples came to him and said, ‘This is a deserted place, and the hour is now late; send the crowds away so that they may go into the villages and buy food for themselves.’ 16Jesus said to them, ‘They need not go away; you give them something to eat. 

The Spiritual Journeymen organize this outreach to serve a meal once per quarter at the Austin Street Centre in downtown Dallas.

Holy Covenant provides the Sunday breakfast at the Austin Street Shelter located in downtown Dallas.  Approximately 300 men and women are served on each occasion.  See the Spiritual Journeymen page for more info. (Adult Men)

Participants are asked to provide 12 sandwiches (of any type, individually wrapped), 12 pieces of fruit and 12 hard-boiled eggs.
A sign-up sheet is on the table in the Narthex.

ADULT MISSION TRIP

HOLY COVENANT SENDS SHEPHERDS TO GUATEMALA

In September, there will be a mission trip to Guatemala for the purpose of renovating an old deserted Methodist Church into a medical clinic in an effort to assist the community in administering good health and loving care to all its residents.  This is a wonderful opportunity to contribute and feel the warmth of love and care being transmitted to God’s children in another location.  All that is required is love for humanity and a desire to serve.  May we be “shepherds” by sharing our talents, help and love with them and helping them “grow their crops and care for their lambs” and by so doing, follow God’s will and share His love for all mankind.  

Would you like to be  Shepherd or a helper?
