Student City Mission Trip - Day 3
This week is our Student City Mission Trip where we will serve, worship, and evangelize in the Katy and Houston areas at several organizations geared toward fighting hunger in Houston.
We started our day with West Houston Assistance Ministries (WHAM). WHAMs mission is, "In the name of Christ, we will serve those who come to us for help regardless of background, belief or circumstance."
Located directly in the Cypress area, West Houston Assistance Ministries is a 501 c3 non-profit agency providing social services to all eligible individuals regardless of their faith or background. We do not offer assistance to those in need based on the expressed or implied condition that they must adhere to or convert to a particular faith, or that they have to listen to, or respond to messaging of any particular faith. We are generous to our neighbors as God is generous to us, and as such, help those who are struggling in as much as we are able to, so that they can regain self-sufficiency.
Our task today was assisting in the retail shop where we cleaned and organized both the resale shop and food pantry. We also sorted books, cleared trash around the property, and helped with food distribution. All profits from the retail store are used to fund WHAM programs.
Afterward, we enjoyed a Thai lunch and Korean ice cream!
See y'all tomorrow!
