Angel House Soup Kitchen (Austin Baptist Chapel)
Angel House has been part of our work from the beginning. For more than 15 years, we’ve worked alongside them to support some of Austin’s most vulnerable neighbors.
Hundreds of people show up every day. Breakfast at 9:30. A pause for prayer at 11:00. Hot lunch until 12:30. It’s steady. Reliable. People know they can count on it.
It’s more than meals. Angel House provides showers, clothing, and a place where people are treated with dignity. For many, it’s one of the few places in the city where they can reset and feel human again.
Our role is simple. When something breaks, we fix it.
When the clothes pantry ran low, we sourced donations and bought jeans and shoes to keep it stocked. When flooding damaged the building, we covered the repairs.
We also handle their coffee. About 200 pounds at a time, every few weeks. More when needed. It’s a small thing, but it matters. It creates a moment of comfort and connection. When there’s extra, they share it with other kitchens in Del Valle and Bastrop.
We stay close to the work. When something is needed, we step in and follow it through.
