Houston Food Bank
Founded in 1982, the Houston Food Bank is a certified member of Feeding America, the nation’s food bank network, with a four-star rating from Charity Navigator. They distribute fresh produce, meat and nonperishables and prepare nutritious hot meals for kids in their state-of-the-art Keegan Kitchen
Campers will spend a morning volunteer at the food bank in their assigned task. All of their efforts will help provide for families in need around the Houston area. At the end of the volunteer service, campers will receive a tour of the Houston Food Bank facilities and learn more about everything they have to offer, how they help the community and why it’s important.
In 1996, Refuge was created to be a sister group to the already established group FOCUS. Similar to FOCUS, Refuge was a worship ministry that traveled to many churches, schools, and special events to share their gift of music. In 2008 Refuge had reached a new milestone, it became a full worship band that served in the weekly Quest service. Since then, Refuge has grown substantially and is now the official worship band for the Convocation held every Wednesday afternoon and the monthly worship night, Fuego, at Houston Baptist
University.
