Agents of Grace - Our Beginning
It started off with a desire to serve the Houston Homeless community for the 2020 Winter season by way of gathering winter jackets and other clothing. Since then, that idea has grown into a desire to do even more in the community, utilizing every God given spiritual gift, physical talent, partnership, life experience, and earthly resource to serve low income families and at-risk youth in the community.
Who we serve
Agents of Grace currently strives to provide resource assistance, life building strategies and initiatives, and Discipleship opportunities to:
Low Income Families
Resource and strategy support
Especially in times such as these, Low income families often times encounter difficulty with obtaining certain basic needs and providing opportunities for enriching activities (such as sports, social groups, etc.) for their children.
We desire to provide families with resource support and economic strategies that will have an eternally transformative impact inside and outside of the home.
At-Risk Youth
Social, Academic, and Health based impact
Due to varying life circumstances, many youths don't have access to certain basic necessities, leaving some to feel like their lives don't matter, and it can result in very self destructive behavior. Health is neglected, academics suffer, and relationships are strained.
We desire for these youths to know their lives do matter, and that their circumstances don't define them or predetermine their futures.
The Lost
Salvation and Discipleship
Romans 3:23 teaches us that we have all sinned and have fallen short of the glory of God. Acts 10:34-35 then teaches us that anyone, regardless of nation, can receive the love of God in Christ.
We all, regardless of upbringing, nation, or social/economic status, are all sinners in need of a savior, and Christ is him.
We strive to love and serve all for God's glory.
Our 3 Missional pillars
Our three missional focus points in how we serve
Focus #1
There is nothing in all of creation that
can separate humanity from the love of God in
Christ Jesus. (Romans 8:38-39)
Focus #2
Socioeconomic status is a designation,
not one's identity. (Colossians 3:1-4)
Focus #3
Present day circumstance alone is
not the indicator for one's future
successes or failures, but rather
one's willingness to understand, work,
persevere, and conquer. (Romans 8:31-37)

Statement of Faith
We Believe...
One God, to be Creator and Ruler of the universe; He has always existed outside of the boundaries of time and has shown Himself in history in three distinct persons – God the Father, God the Son (Jesus) and God the Holy Spirit- these three distinctions form the Trinity.
Jesus is the Son of God, sent to earth to be the sinless sacrifice for our sins. He was both fully human and fully God. He was at the creation of the world, and by Him, all things were made. He rose from the dead after three days, and has complete power over sin and death. He will return one day to complete God’s plan of redemption for all who believe, as well as creation itself.
The Salvation of lost and sinful mankind through the shed blood of Jesus Christ by faith alone.
The Holy Spirit is the third distinct member of the Trinity, co-equal to God and Jesus. He has been presented to this world to convict mankind of his sin, and make them aware of their need for Christ. He is present and active in each person from the moment they believe in Jesus as their Savior, and gives us power to defeat sin and the ability to understand God’s truth.
The Bible is the story of the redemption of mankind by God. It is the inspired, infallible, authoritative Word of God. We believe the entire Bible points to the work and person of Jesus Christ.
The Unity of the Spirit of all true believers, the Church, the body of Christ. It is God’s primary and intended instrument to serve the poor and bring about community transformation.
