Community Council Monthly Meetings
North Post Ministry hosts a monthly community meeting that brings together military members from North Fort Hood, the City of Gatesville, local businesses, churches, and veteran organizations. These gatherings are designed to strengthen relationships, foster collaboration, and support those who serve our community.
Meetings rotate among locally owned restaurants, allowing us to showcase and support the businesses that make Gatesville unique. Each meeting provides an opportunity to share upcoming events, coordinate volunteer and service efforts, and highlight ways individuals and organizations can get involved in meaningful community service.
Through these monthly meetings, North Post Ministry serves as a bridge between the military and the community—working together to build connection, support, and lasting impact.
