Today our CORe Youth had a great time giving back to the community by delivering meals to individuals via Meals on Wheels with Northwest Assistance Ministries, as well as serving meals in the Young At Heart Senior Center!

They delivered/served over 25 meals today!! 🍛

Acts 20:35 NLT
[35] And I have been a constant example of how you can help those in need by working hard. You should remember the words of the Lord Jesus: ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”

Why attend? Attend for the education and knowledge. NOT because you have a mental problem. “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge…”. —Hosea‬ ‭4‬:‭6‬ ‭KJV

I firmly believe in the efficacy of prayer and the significance of spiritual practices in my life. Moreover, I am convinced that no challenge is insurmountable for God.

However, my faith also compels me to seek healing for my physical body through medication and to prioritize my mental well-being by accessing professional services when necessary, trusting in God's ability to grant me perfect peace. I also acknowledge that not every issue stems from demonic origins, and discernment is essential.

Statistics from the Houston mental health landscape reveal a concerning prevalence of distress, illness, and rising su***de rates, alongside inadequate access to care. In response, this mini conference aims to educate, foster a supportive community, and alleviate stigma, particularly among black men, to bridge the existing gaps in mental health care. Although the sessions are tailored to address the specific needs of black men, all men are welcome to participate. The focus on black men stems from the observation that our demographic often lets stigma deter us from seeking help due to societal expectations of stoicism. I invite you to join us, as your presence may enable you to support someone in need. Please register by scanning the QR Code.
