Mission Spotlight December 2025Communities in Schools South Central Texas Sunday, December 28th, Peace's Mission Spotlight is Communities in Schools. Communities in Schools South Central Texas has been empowering students for over 30 years, helping them succeed in school and life. Founded by the Greater New Braunfels Chamber of Commerce, CIS is the only campus based nonprofit in our partner districts, reaching over 43,000 students across 60 schools.

In partnership with 300+ local businesses, agencies, churches, and volunteers, CIS connects students and families to resources that address academic, emotional, and real-life challenges. This model transforms lives by surrounding students with the support they need to thrive--in the classroom and beyond.

SERVICE OPPORTUNITYBUILD A BED AT FIRST FOOTING First Footing is nearing the completion of construction phase 2 of their program, which will add 24 more beds for adults who are experiencing homelessness. This will increase bed capacity to 66, not including inclement weather shelter days. Last year nearly 500 people sought shelter and the waiting list was as high as 90 people, so the added beds will help better serve the community need. First Footing purchased a wonderful bed system but needs help assembling the beds. Due to the timing of construction, help is needed on the weekdays of Thursday 12/11/25 and Friday 12/12/25 from 8am-12pm and 1-5pm both days. They will need about 10 people for each time slot. If you know of people who may be able to assist, here is the Sign Up Genius link with slots and instructions: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C084DA4AD28A4F8C25-60717820-assembling Thanks for your payers and for any help you can lend- Kellie Stallings
