WHO WE ARE

ABOUT US

Joe Williams Ministries is a Christian non-profit 501 (c) (3) tax-exempt corporation based in Houston, Texas. JWM is currently involved in a number of projects, some larger than others, that seek to help the at-risk youth and older homeless of Houston get off the streets through the transforming power of God's love.

To alleviate an often insufficient pool of resources, JWM partners with other ministries around the city to achieve the big goals of these projects.

The JWM vision is to engage, as resources grow, in more projects around the city that help to rebuild the long-devastated lives of Houston's street population.

Our primary partners are Montrose Street Reach (Street Church) and Youth With A Mission-Houston.

Joe Williams Ministries History

OUR HISTORY

In the year 2000 God opened the door for Joe Williams to minister to the at-risk street kids that lived in and frequented his home neighborhood of Montrose, Houston. Our first Bible study outreach in 2001 was in a house church with 3-4 street kids (who came after being offered cookies and hot coffee). Shortly after that Youth With A Mission Houston, directed by Martin and Kim Dale, joined the effort and these two ministries formed the partnership that later became known as Montrose Street Reach.

The word spread to other street kids and homeless as the project continued to grow. We now host (feed and help) approximately 80-120 street kids and older homeless at Montrose Street Reach every Thursday night. We are currently holding our outreach in a parking lot at 1206 Lovett Blvd. In addition, every Tuesday & Wednesday we help minister to the homeless in a drug infested area in downtown Houston. Also, on some Saturday afternoons we go to various homeless locations to share the love of Jesus and offer practical help.

There is despair on the streets of Houston. We have to bring hope.
