This week, our Conroe Corps Community Center’s mobile canteen unit in Montgomery county was called to duty for disaster relief efforts in the flood stricken community of Glen Loch, just north of Houston. Staffed by a small army of volunteers and Salvation Army officers, this disaster relief team, as of this morning, had already provided pastoral care, food and clean up kits to approximately 100 people in the local community.
As a result of torrential rains in the local region, last week, this community was evacuated to area shelters. Residents, this week, are cleaning up their homes and salvaging whatever they can. Each of our mobile feeding units, better known as canteens, can provide hot meals for up to 2,000 people in one day, when fully staffed.

Everyone was very grateful and happy to see our canteens in the area.
