Houston Hosts Overnight Guests for Volunteering “Lock-In”
Orphan Grain Train Houston recently had a few overnight guests.
Sixteen youth from different churches in the area were the branches first overnight guests. They bunked in the two multi-purpose rooms and enjoyed hot showers after a day of serving in the community. They set a goal to assemble 200 hygiene kits for OGT which they successfully accomplished with energy to spare! Thank you, for choosing to campout and volunteer at OGT Houston – and for this fun idea!
May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.
2 Corinthians 13:14 NIV
