Our Saturday CDGM event in Rosenberg was awesome!!

We had a great group of Volunteers that helped in a home that was flooded. We partnered with the organization ALL HANDS VOLUNTEERS whose motto is "Rebuilding Hope" ... sound familiar?! They're a non-profit organization that provides volunteer powered assistance to disaster affected communities. Volunteers prayed with the owner who said he was losing hope. When we arrived, the ALL HANDS VOLUNTEERS had been there since 7-8 am. They were thrilled to see us and said having reinforcements was great! Our Volunteers experienced really great fellowship the whole time we were together!! ... Plus, great ideas for CDGM came from our time together!

The city of Rosenberg experienced major flooding over the last several weeks and as a result a mandatory evacuation was issued because of a local river that was expected to crest because of the access water. Our team began to make an impact before it all started; to offer “hope in a disaster” the Houston Global Missions team prepared and donated hygiene kits to the American Red Cross shelter at the Boys & Girls Club of America in Wharton Texas. We prepared a total of 104 hygiene kits, 51 for men and 53 for women; each kit could provide enough toiletries for 2 adults. This shelter was opened to public for individuals who needed to evacuate from the rising waters of the Brazos River, and for families that have already been devastated by the flood waters.
