Service Leadership Council

The Service Leadership Council is a team of student leaders united to encourage and equip HBU students to meet real needs in the Houston community by being the hands and feet of Christ.  This group challenges other students on campus to get involved in serving various organizations throughout Houston.  Below is a description of the different ways that SLC members are serving.

Ready to sign up? Need more info? Contact any of the Council Members directly or come by the Spiritual Life office! We'll be waiting for you!

Notice: Students interested in leading an SLC Team during the school year are encouraged to apply. Applications will be available in January.  SLC members receive a leadership grant for service.
