We operate Loaves & Fishes, a large soup kitchen in downtown Houston where 200 to 300 of Houston’s chronically hungry gather six days a week for nutritious, hot, home-cooked lunches cooked by our staff and served by volunteers. There is no cost and no requirement.
Loaves & Fishes is located just east of Minute Maid Park, at 2009 Congress Avenue (the corner of Congress and Chartres streets). The lunch line begins forming around 10:30 a.m. for service beginning at 11 a.m. We are closed Mondays. All are welcome.
Please call us at 713-224-1373 between 8 a.m. and 11 a.m., Tuesday through Sunday, or email lcronin@mhihouston.org. We would love your help!
In each of our 16 neighborhood homes guests prepare and enjoy three meals a day served family style with nutritional guidance from guest house leaders. In our Clubhouse, we oversee daily hot lunches prepared by our members — often using ingredients from our organic gardens cultivated by members and guests.
We are a grateful member of the Houston Food Bank, with additional support from area farmers and food donors.
