FAITH VILLAGE Volunteer Accommodation Center
306 Hudgins Street Smithville, TX 78957.
Faith Village is a joint venture by Baptist, Episcopal, Methodist and Presbyterian Churches  
Faith Village will close at the end of July 2013.  (Space is available through July 19)

The Bastrop County Long Term Recovery Team is reducing their effort because of the lack of funds.  Volunteers needed to complete funded homes have been identified and Faith Village will no longer be needed to house volunteers. 

Maximum occupancy of the Faith Village facility is 40.   Alternative sites, operated by other agencies, may be available as overflow.    

A $20 charge per person per night should be paid on arrival.  This fee includes three meals per day and covers the cost of maintaining the facility.      

Faith Village is a cooperative living arrangement.  Food will be purchased by the village host but residents will be expected to do all cooking and cleaning.       

Adult sponsors of youth under 18 must be in a ratio of eight to one.   Youth sponsors must be age 21 or older and the ratio of male to female sponsors must be approximately the same as the gender ratio of the youth.

Volunteers may schedule work Monday through Saturday.
