Crossroads At Park Place

Each Tuesday and Thursday, Crossroads opens its doors as a day shelter providing a place of rest and safety to those people without homes, people in transition, and people who find it difficult to make ends meet. Crossroads serves a hot breakfast and lunch to nearly 100-150 people every Tuesday and Thursday. Crossroads also offers showering facilities, laundry services, hygiene kits, backpacks, computer services, mail services, Bible study, and pastoral care. At each Thanksgiving and Christmas celebration holiday periods Crossroads staff and volunteers provide meals to over 150 clients for each holiday event. On Wednesday mornings of each week Crossroads provides a Houston Food Bank supported distribution at St Pauls Episcopal Church in Houston, Texas. Fresh produce and shelf stables groceries are passed out to families in cars. The average number of cars of families coming to these distributions is about 224 families every week. Since 2001 Crossroads goal has been to restore dignity to those who have been marginalized, forgotten, or ignored by society. We equip our clients and families to overcome barriers in society by providing not only for basic needs and social services but building relationships founded on Christian love, respect and dignity, which Crossroads believes is the birthright of all people.
