Blessed to Share About God’s Work Through OGT
Board members representing the Houston Branch are focused on locating organizations within Texas who have needs we can fill. We have been in high demand to share presentations about OGT’s history and our Branch activities. It is truly a joyful blessing to interact with the people in the community who want to partner with OGT. Interest and support have been overwhelming from church groups, men/women’s groups, Rotary’s, and local Chamber volunteers.
