Daily Bread
Once a week, Covenant Presbyterian members provide the “Daily Bread” (a warm meal) for about 40 homeless teens living in the University area. These teens are served by LifeWorks, an Austin-based non-profit agency that offers youth and family services to homeless children and young adults, ages 10-23.
When
Volunteers are needed for Daily Bread on Tuesdays to cook and serve the meal. The meal must be dropped off before 4 p.m. at University Baptist Church near the University of Texas. We serve the meal from 4-5:30 p.m. at University Baptist Church.
