Holy Cross Hope House assists the disadvantaged in downtown Shreveport by furnishing essential services unavailable to those without a place to live. By providing mailboxes, phones, clothing, showers, washers, and dryers, those without can live and work with the basics all of us need to survive. More services, including daily meals, bus passes, and education on how to be self-dependent, add to Hope House’s mission to help all we can to achieve freedom from living on the streets.
Members and friends of St. James volunteer once a month to serve lunch at Hope House. They cook and provide the food, dinnerware, and volunteers to make it all happen for their designated day. If you are interested in helping out (once or habitually!), please contact the church office for more information on getting involved.
