Volunteer Information and Opportunities!

LifeHouse is a Christian ministry providing housing, healing, and hope to young women experiencing an unplanned pregnancy. Our housing ministry is located at our LifeHouse campus in South Houston and our administrative office is located at 3323 Bissonnet. We provide services and have needs for volunteers at both locations – as we are also providing “outreach” services to other young pregnant and parenting women who need “healing and hope”, but not necessarily housing.

We need ALL types of spiritual gifts and talents at LifeHouse:

  • Houseparent Respite Care - Either a female individual or couple who assume the role of caretaker to the residents in order to give the Houseparent staff needed relief. Children are welcome, although accommodations are limited. You will have the opportunity to stay on campus and work with our residents over the weekend – showing them the true BODY OF CHRIST! The Respite care would be typically over a weekend, from 12:00 noon on Friday (or other mutually arranged time) to 6:00 on Sunday evening. Training is provided and required. A furnished apartment and/or bedroom and bathroom are provided.
