đź’™ Celebrating the Grandparents Who Help Shape Our Community đź’™

With Grandparents Day approaching this Sunday, Wesley is celebrating the grandparents who fill our families and our community with love, wisdom, strength, and countless cherished memories.

At Wesley, we know that family is at the heart of a strong community. Grandparents often serve as caregivers, mentors, storytellers, and a source of unconditional love, and their impact reaches far beyond their own families. They help shape the next generation and remind us of the importance of connection, compassion, and community.

To every grandparent in our Wesley family and throughout our community: Happy Grandparents Day! Thank you for all you do, all you give, and all the love you share. đź’™

This Labor Day Weekend, we’re reflecting on where Wesley has been, and looking ahead to where we’re going. ❤️

In this special video, Wesley Board Member and Spirit of Helping Luncheon Event Chair Mary Balagia shares a little Wesley history and reflects on the incredible impact Wesley Community Center is continuing to make in our community now, more than 120 years later.

But the story doesn’t end there! The impact Wesley is making today is even greater, and it’s only possible because of supporters like you.

Mary and the entire Wesley family invite you to join us for a stellar Spirit of Helping Luncheon on Friday, October 23rd, Celebrating Community, Purpose, and Lasting Impact.

Come celebrate Wesley’s legacy, the impact being made today, and the future we can build together.

We hope you’ll join us!

At Wesley Community Center, we believe every child deserves access to the care they need to thrive.

That's why we're proud to partner with Texas Children's Hospital to host the Texas Children's Mental Health Mobile Clinic right here in our parking lot!

The Mental Health Mobile Clinic travels throughout Houston to provide free or low-cost counseling, mental health screenings, and treatment for uninsured and underinsured children and teens ages 7–18. Staffed by bilingual therapists, the clinic serves as a vital resource for families who may have limited access to traditional behavioral healthcare.

đź“… Every Monday
🕙 10:00 AM – 3:00 PM
📍 Wesley Community Center, 1410 Lee St.
đźš¶ Walk-ins are welcome!

Through partnerships like this, we're making it easier for families to access compassionate, quality mental health services—right in the heart of the community.

📞 For more information or to learn about available services, please contact the Texas Children's Mental Health Mobile Clinic main line.

Together, we're removing barriers to care and helping children, teens, and families build healthier, brighter futures. đź’™
