Austin, TX
Our Mission
To serve those who are transitioning out of homelessness in Austin, TX.
For the third year in a row we will be working with Mobile Loaves and Fishes and staying at their Community First! Village. This village has over 500 tiny homes on 51 acres that house people who used to experience homelessness. We have the privilege of staying in the village, working alongside the residents, and facilitating community time for them all while encountering them with love, mercy and compassion. We invite the residents to join us for mass every day and adoration. It will be an incredible experience where we get to bring Jesus to others by creating a culture of encounter where everyone is seen, known and loved.
