Hey Dean Highlanders,

Libby on Ethel Ave is a fellow Dean Highlander who works at Mission Waco. She asked that we help to spread the following message about some of Mission Waco’s upcoming events:

I am a part of Mission Waco’s mobilization team which seeks to equip neighbors to become more compassionately involved in their communities! We have a couple of really awesome, FREE events coming up outlined below. I would love for the Dean Highland neighborhood to be represented. Also, if you are willing, I would greatly appreciate help spreading the word to our neighbors!

Creekside Community Serve Day: September 12, 2026 from 9AM-12PM

  • Join us for a time of serving our neighbors living at Creekside Community Village. There will be a host of different projects going on such as landscaping, organizing, arts & crafts, and more!

Equipped with Compassion Workshop – Game Night: September 17, 2026 from 6PM-8PM

Walk for the Homeless: October 24, 2026 from 7:30AM-10AM

Thank you for the important work that you do to support our neighbors! Please feel free to reach out if I can ever be a resource or support to you.
