Bread and Bowls 2021 was a hit!

We are very thankful for our friends and community.

Nothing can stop Bread ‘n Bowls and God’s love for His people. And we could not have done it without your prayers, donations, excitement, hungry stomachs, and support!

We raised over $25,000!

Thank you to our sponsors and friends for being faithful. We also want to recognize our in-kind donations and the plethora of gifts we received towards our Online Silent Auction & Adopt-a-Box.

And we cannot forget our wonderful chefs: Chef James (Cafe de Belton) who cooked the chili and Chef Jelisa (Dorothy’s Catering 2) who made the cheesy potato soup.

Able-Life on Frink Street

Our Frink St. houses are also part of the Able-Life program. During this phase of the program, we transition Lodge members into homes we have built or renovated in a once-neglected historic downtown neighborhood. Frink Street residents maintain a job and sobriety while they prepare for an independent future.
