Make plans to join us for a special family mission trip to Mustang Island. Families will spend the mornings serving together through meaningful, age-appropriate mission projects, with afternoons free to enjoy the beach, explore the island, and spend time as a family.
This trip is designed to help children and adults experience the joy of serving others while building friendships and making lasting memories. Families of all ages and stages are welcome—more information and registration details are coming soon.

Through the Mobile Loaves & Fishes (MLF) food truck ministry, volunteers provide food, clothing, hygiene products and other life-sustaining items to our homeless neighbors 7 nights a week, 365 days a year.
Mobile Loaves & Fishes is also the visionary organization behind Community First! Village, a master planned development in east Austin that provides affordable, permanent housing and a supportive community for the disabled, chronically homeless in Central Texas.
WHPC is responsible for make-ready and truck run shifts on the first and second Sundays of every month.

NEW, REGULAR OPPORTUNITIES
WHPC has a long history of supporting MLF with transitioning people from homelessness to being part of a community that includes housing, dignified income, physical and mental well being, and supportive relationships. We are continuing to do this with monthly gatherings at King Park area of Community First. These gatherings focus on hanging out with neighbors and sharing a meal. Think of it as cul-de-sac party/cook out in your neighborhood. Grilling, games & conversations … This is a family friendly event that will bless all those that participate.
On Sunday, June 14th, we welcomed James Lavender from Presbyterian Children’s Homes and Services (PCHAS) as our Mission Spotlight guest.
More than 120 years ago, a local Presbyterian church responded to the needs of one mother facing an impossible situation. That faithful act of compassion grew into a ministry that now serves more than 5,000 children and families each year across Texas, Louisiana, and Missouri.
