We are a Social Service non-profit serving Katy/West Houston. We have a Social Services Department that offers emergency financial assistance and resiliency programs, a Food Pantry dedicated to eradicating hunger, a Crisis Center that houses the Domestic Abuse Center and the Sexual Assault Center, and Resale Stores / Donation Centers.
In the early 1980’s, Katy area churches struggled to meet the changing needs of a rapidly growing population. With the downturn in the Houston economy, members of the Katy Ministerial Alliance realized that Katy churches were increasingly being asked by long time residents as well as newcomers to provide food and emergency financial resources. First United Methodist Church of Katy housed a food pantry in the church basement, and St. Bartholomew Catholic Church opened a thrift store at Avenue D and 4th Street. It was decided a unified effort would offer a more effective use of their resources, and on June 25, 1984, nine interdenominational churches incorporated as Katy Christian Ministries. Currently, KCM has 65 Coalition Churches and numerous business and community partners.
In 1994 land was donated to KCM for a new operational facility. Hope for the future became a reality on February 26, 2003, when KCM had a groundbreaking for their new facility.
KCM now has 4 locations. One that houses Administration, Social Services, and Food Pantry. Another for the Crisis Center that includes the Domestic Abuse Center, and Sexual Abuse Center. Two Resale Stores in the greater Katy area.
The service area covered by KCM reaches into three counties, Harris, Fort Bend and Waller.
KCM services are offered to everyone in our community regardless of religious background or affiliation. We do not require participation in any religious activities in order to receive our services.
We rely on area churches, local businesses, corporations and individuals for support. There are many opportunities to get involved and to help us fulfill our mission.
