LOAVES&Fishes, Inc. Christian Ministry to Refugees from Bhutan
NEWSLETTER VOLUME 2 AUGUST
2010
Introducing
LOAVES&Fishes, Inc. Christian Ministry to Refugees from Bhutan After
several years of serving the Bhutanese refugees in Houston in an unofficial capacity, LOAVES&Fishes, Inc. Christian
Ministry to Refugees from Bhutan in Houston was introduced to the community in March 2010. It is
the intention of the LOAVES&Fishes Minsitry that this website will serve as a portal through which others may become acquainted
with this group of refugee people and might feel led to become involved through the donation of time as a Volunteer for LOAVES&Fishes
or through the gift of either financial resources or new or gently-used items. Our goals are: 1. To
continue to serve God through our commitment to meeting the physical and spiritual needs of the Bhutanese community living
in the city of Houston. We will continue to follow the leadership of Jesus who
fed the multitudes from some fish and a few loaves of bread. 2. To continue to lend physical and spiritual assistance to the Bhutanese
Christians working in their own community to bring those who do not know the Love of God into His community of believers. We specifically support the efforts of the CANAAN BHUTANESE CHURCH and will post news
and information about special events relating to that church on the website and the Newsletter. 3. To continue to encourage the Bhutanese in their efforts to become productive
and self-supporting members of American society. We will post news and information
pertaining to the several organizations such as THE COMMUNITY CLOTH that provide a means by which the Bhutanese can earn the
funds they need to live. 4. To continue to become a more cohesive and well-organized group so that
we can efficiently and with purpose serve as the hands and feet of Jesus within the Bhutanese community and act as good stewards
of the resources that He chooses to bless us with. We are also working hard to obtain 501 (c) 3 status. LOAVES&Fishes, Inc.,
