The following program below will be our main focus for 2009. We will still work on other projects at the Mission as

well for they are important to the community.¨ Project Lucia

spirit in people. The project is in a building where there is a dentist office set up to complete preventative medicine

for indigent people. A group room set up for Narcotics Anonymous meetings, Alcohol & Drug

Education, Life Skills geared toward vocational success and Anger Management Groups. There is a food pantry in

this building to help feed the indigent people in Corpus Christi, Texas. The building also maintains a pantry for the residents of Mission 911 and for special events. We

will have a reading program for children from the ages of 6-11 from the neighborhood.

Mission 911 Goal is to become the model of how to help

people in this Community through Christ .

Moe ExpoWe had an Expo in May 16-18 2008

Mercy Outreach Expo’s goal was to inform the Corpus Christi community about the needs of and

available resources for the homeless and the working poor. In the process, we inspired the community through word and song to partner

with the existing organizations and use the avenues available to help show God’s mercy and love. Some of these existing organizations are

new to Corpus Christi as of the last year.

How has the support from the community and

Church’s helped your work?

We have been blessed with support so we can show those in

need the Grace of God. The support has helped us pay for the repairs of our building and general Mission 911 expenses. The support also has paid for meals for those in

need. Your support will give us reassurance that our work and

faith for the Lord Jesus Christ will continue.

How can the Church and the community pray for Mission

911 in the this coming year?

•Funding to keep Mission operating.

•Funding for case workers and other staff members.

•Dentistry facility.

•All the brothers and sisters and families who are on the streets.
