CRISIS PREGNANCY CENTER (Open Daily) (Mondays, 6-8pm)
The Source
for Women
The anchor
of Farrington Mission is The Source for Women of Houston. This northeast
location (scheduled to launch in the September, 2010) will reach upwards to 200
unborn babies per month and could potentially reach upwards to 2500 women a
year. This Christ-centered facility aims at helping women
make healthy choices about their unborn children. There are many
opportunities to serve as a volunteer at this center but you must go through
“The Source for Women” directly.

Food Pantry (Mondays, 6-8pm)
This ministry currently offers food to needy families in the fifth ward and in the surrounding communities every Monday night. The majority of the food comes from local churches and other organizations who collect specific items that are donated and dropped off or picked up. The food is then sorted and handed out. During the process, families are prayed with and spiritual needs are addressed. Churches can get involved through food drives (see list), volunteering to serve at the mission, etc. The point person for this ministry is: Staci Smith, 713-962-1735, ssmith@farringtonmission.org.
