South Austin Church has been developing and fostering a Community of Care with the families, schools, organizations, and businesses in our neighborhood and beyond.  Since 1947, the church has been responding to the needs in South Austin, and that currently includes a free food pantry serving an average of 150 families per week; offers our building to the community to house seven recovery groups, youth and family scouting programs, health screenings, trade education classes, and affordable options for family celebrations; provides post incarceration and refugee support, utility assistance, immigration legal workshops, and turkeys, pies, and all the sides for 1000 families in need for Thanksgiving, which we fund by selling pumpkins and by generous partnerships in our community; and we are a multicultural, multilingual church with services in English, Spanish, and Kinyarwanda.
