The Rothko Chapel, was founded in 1971 as an sanctuary available to all people of every belief. They have gorgeous paintings of American abstract at the entrance and walkway that will take your breath away. Thousands of visitors come each year, of every faith from all parts of the world, just to see how the chapel looks and makes you feel upon entering it. It gets support from the neighborhood and has become a spiritual landmark.
The Rothko Chapel has also become a rallying place for all people concerned with peace, freedom, and social justice throughout the world. So at any moment you can see hundreds of people gathering there for an important cause. Every two year the Chapel gives out the human rights award to one person or group to honor those who are willing to risk their lives to promote human rights for all people. The recipient receives a cash prize of $20,000.
So when you are in the area this is a must see Chapel that should be on your list!

Depelchin has been serving Houston for decades. They mostly offer services to battered women and children. I have volunteered at Depelchin on numerous occasions, and have found it very rewarding. The last time I was there I helped out by painting and fixing windows. The residents were very grateful for our help!
If you run the Houston marathon, you can elect to raise money for Depelchin.

This is a very special outfit. The Aurora Picture Show offers Houston audiences opportunities to see smaller and more experimental film and video projects. Aurora maintains a steady schedule of unique and provocative film and video pieces that enlighten and entertain. They consistently give Houston audiences rare opportunities to encounter the work of overlooked and underrepresented film and video artists. Houston is so much better off with Aurora in the mix.

This is the radio station with the greatest variety in Houston. No other station can claim anywhere near the level of diversity. It is a community radio station operated by the students of Rice University. At 50,000 watts it can be heard halfway to Austin. One can never be too certain of what will be heard on this station when you tune in. The music is usually great and the DJ’s are helpful, informative and usually enjoy taking calls.

I like how St. Justin's is a really diverse church. They hold masses in Vietnamese, English and Spanish. For special masses like Christmas, they have the first reading in Spanish, second reading in Vietnamese and gospel in English. They really try to make their whole congregation feel welcome.
I enjoy the free donuts after the 10:45am mass too.

We were blown away by this church. My husband and I have been looking for a spiritual home for several years now, but nothing felt quite right. We attended services here a few weeks ago and were very, very excited to find such a welcoming, open-minded, thought-provoking congregation. We recommend that anyone who is interested in attending a unitarian church, give Emerson a try. The facilities are new and environmentally friendly. Great all-around church.

The city of Houston should fund these people. They work tirelessly to help any animal people bring in. They get paid nothing or very little for their time. They really care.

I love this church because of it's thought provoking worship and bible study, the best friends, the fun things we do together, and the incredible campus. But what means the most to me is how the people of South Main Baptist Church continually seek to find ways to live the way Jesus taught us, loving our neighbor as ourselves (feeding the hungry, giving drink to the thirsty, clothing the unclothed, visiting the prisoners, etc.). I encourage you to try it - you will find comfort and peace.
