Parker County Center of Hope

06/08/2026

For 22 years in a row, Snow Garrett Williams - Certified Public Accountants has supported Center of Hope through their annual food drive! ❤️

They challenged their staff and followers to join them in making a difference for local families. This morning, the team delivered 618 pounds of food that will help support Camp Hope, our summer outreach program serving children and families across Parker County. Because of generous community partners like Snow Garrett Williams, children attending Camp Hope receive encouragement, fun activities, and groceries to help meet practical needs at home.

Thank you for your continued investment in our community!

🌞 Summer is here and so is our 3rd Annual Summer Stock-Up Challenge! 🌞

Starting NEXT WEEK, and we'd love for your business, church, or organization to be part of it.

Summer means no school lunch for many kids in Parker County. With children at home, families face extra pressure to keep food on the table. Donations also slow down in the summer just when the need grows. That's where YOU come in.

Here's how your group can help:

🛒 Collect pantry staples and hygiene items
📣 Rally your employees, members, or congregation
🚗 Drop donations off at one of our collection locations
🔗 Donate from our Amazon wishlist!
https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/206P6OQW9USGN/ref=nav_wishlist_lists_2?_encoding=UTF8&type=wishlist

📍 Drop-Off Locations:
• Weatherford – 1318 Clear Lake Rd (Back pantry door) | Mon–Thu, 10 AM–3 PM
• Springtown – 112 Optimist | Mon–Thu, 10 AM–2 PM

🛒 Suggested items: Canned goods, Peanut Butter & Jelly, Cereal, Oatmeal, Mac & Cheese, Shampoo, Deodorant & more

Our Springtown location offers many of the same services as our Weatherford location, including crisis assistance, coaching, and classes designed to support long-term stability and hope. It’s been a difficult several weeks, and we want our Springtown neighbors to know that we are still here for you. 💙

Springtown Center of Hope is still here for you. ❤️

We want you to know you are not alone. Along with hot meals, food pantry support, utility assistance, and our on-site clinic, we also provide long-term solutions through life coaching, education classes, and personalized support to help families move forward with hope and stability.

No matter the situation, we are committed to walking alongside our community every step of the way.

✨ More Than a Pantry: Volunteering ✨

We are More Than a Pantry because there are countless ways to serve beyond the food pantry. God has uniquely gifted each person, and we love helping volunteers discover where their talents and passions can make the greatest impact at Center of Hope. We have opportunities for you in life coaching, tutoring, supporting outreach efforts, serving at events, or volunteering at The Hope Chest, every role helps make a difference in our community. 💙

Jo, our Volunteer Coordinator, has the privilege of connecting people with meaningful opportunities to serve and seeing firsthand how every act of service brings hope to individuals and families in need. 🙌

🎯 IT’S TIME FOR CAMP HOPE! 🎯

This year's theme is Camp Courage and we’re learning what it means to Be Brave for God! 💪❤️

The program gives us the opportunity to go into communities and serve children right in their neighborhoods. Each camp day is filled with fun activities, the Word of God, and every child receives a bag of groceries to take home. ✨

We would love to invite Parker County children to come hear the good news this summer! There will be 5 different locations throughout June and July, so come see us!

Check out the attached flyers for the location closest to you! ☀️🙌

This summer, our Adult Education program is creating even more opportunities for ESL students to grow and connect! ☀️📚

While regular classes are on break, students can continue practicing their English through a conversational class and a summer book club. These opportunities help reinforce everything they learned during the Spring semester while also building friendships and community along the way! 💙

Romans 15:5-6 “May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you the same attitude of mind toward each other that Christ Jesus had, so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.”

💛 We all face moments where we find ourselves feeling weary, vulnerable, or discouraged by our current circumstances. When facing these challenges, we are reminded that God provides us with the encouragement we need to persevere in our faith. This Scripture also highlights the importance of living in harmony with one another. As followers of Christ, we are called to understand each other’s differences and come together in unity, reflecting the love and grace of Christ. Living in community with others who mirror Christ enables us to bear one another’s burdens and find comfort in our times of need. In doing so, we bring glory to His name.
