Interfaith Ministries is partnering with Giving Machines Houston this holiday season. Imagine swiping your credit card at a vending machine—but instead of buying a candy bar for yourself, you’re buying lunch for seniors, feeding a homebound senior's pet for one month, or providing a refugee family with necessary furniture for their new home.

That’s the Giving Machine.

On November 7th, the Dominican Family participated in a social justice project supporting single and expecting mothers who are Interfaith Ministries’ Refugee Services clients. The event also included a presentation from our Community Engagement team about our refugee services, welcoming the stranger, and how the shared commonality of faith can serve as a connector to help those in need. The Dominican Family donated 40 complete kits, which included an assortment of personal care and hygiene items such as diapers, diaper wipes, baby wash, bar soap, laundry detergent, bottles, baby creams, and Vaseline, as well as extra hygiene items. Thank you to the Dominican Family for supporting our Refugee clients!

Our Story

Interfaith Ministries for Greater Houston brings people of diverse faith traditions together for dialogue, collaboration and service, as a demonstration of our shared beliefs. Our core programs are: • Meals on Wheels delivers more than one million meals and more each year to 4,000+ homebound seniors in Harris, Galveston and surrounding counties. In addition, aniMeals on Wheels provides free pet food to over 1,200 dogs and cats of homebound seniors - as well as spay/neuter services, flea and tick prevention, and more! • Refugee Services, in conjunction with the U.S. State Department and Episcopal Migration Ministries, resettles hundreds of legal refugees in Houston each year. 90% of our refugees are self-sufficient within six months of arrival. • Interfaith Relations and Community Partnerships (IRCP) provides a safe harbor for greater Houston through its many interfaith programs and dialogue efforts. In fall 2017, Volunteer Houston became part of the IRCP family, matching volunteers with nonprofits across the community.

Feedback welcome on new interfaith book. KINSHIP makes a unique contribution towards inter-religious compassion. It advocates ways of reading Jewish, Christian and Islamic holy books that champion commonalities and debunk disparaging misreadings. Friendly eyes examine each book’s unique characteristics, seeing genuine expressions of faith. Upon reading this book, you may emerge with renewed hope in the power of religion as a force for peace.
