Across Ennis

"Because of the boundaries I set, I was able to realize the amount of change I saw in people and how much respect I have received." - A-CROSS Client

We are so thankful to be an organization supported by The Greater Ennis United Way ❤️

(This is not a food giveaway.)

We have several opportunities for individuals or groups to sponsor our apartments and support our clients in very tangible ways.

We are always building our inventory of items that our clients take with them to their next home: bed sets (twin and full), standard size pillows and cases, bath towels, mats, rugs, shower curtains.

We also have opportunities for individuals or groups to pray for our clients, bring them a hot meal, provide a care basket.

Contact us if you would be interested in any of these ways to share the love of Christ in action! 972-872-9828

How does failure, or the fear of failure, affect you?

No matter what your season of life is like right now, we are rooting for you!

THANK YOU to our anonymous donor! We appreciate these pillows SO MUCH and can't wait to provide them for our clients!

Did you know about our Ennis Little Pantries? These locations are all community stocked. Take what you need, give what you can.

Check out our website for more resources available to our community in Ennis and the surrounding area.

We love being able to provide our clients with items that they can use while in the A-CROSS apartments and then take with them to their next home. One of these items are standard sized pillows.

We are incredibly thankful for the group from Tabernacle Baptist Church - Ennis TX that served us during their ENGAGE week, a few weeks ago!

What a blessing! Thank you for your hard work!

Happy Coffee Day! Just for fun, what is your favorite coffee drink?☕

If you would like to partner with us as we furnish our apartments for each new client, one great way is through our Amazon Wishlist.

One way we love to serve our clients is by having them take the household supplies that they had in their A-CROSS apartment when they move to their next home. Because of this, we are always re-supplying our inventory of items that are on this list. Thank you supporting and loving our clients with us, in this way!

Check out our Wishlist in the comments below!

At A-CROSS, we go beyond just providing housing. We look to find the struggles that led to the crisis. We can assist our clients in finding a better job, connecting them to qualified counselors, helping them get health care, locating child care, getting them groceries etc.

Upon move in, we work with all of our clients to come up with a plan to get back on their feet. And hold them accountable to KEEP WORKING THEIR PLAN!

We are a hand up, but not a handout!
