COMMUNITY SERVICE

David & Ivory Ministries, Inc. provides opportunity for clients to contribute to the community, gain skills, and develop job contracts through community service.

The Lieutenant’s House is an authorized community service provider through the Harris County Community Supervision and Correction Department where probationers and parolee can complete their court ordered community service obligations.

The goal of our community service program is to develop strong workplace skills in participants for a competitive employment experience. Participants agree to perform a specified number of hours that either meet their court-ordered obligations or their own personal commitments.

Our Philosophy

I am a firm believer that every man was created with a Gift in the inside of him. God has placed it there from the beginning of this place called time. I believe that with the right knowledge, tools, and a plan of action, through the grace of God, every man can develop his gift. After all, that is the inly way one can reach his full potential. Dream your dreams, visualize your vision through the gifts that God has placed inside of you.
