Still Waters Fellowship of Texas

Serving Those Who Served Through Faith, Fellowship, and the Great Outdoors

Join Our Team: Volunteer with Still Waters

At Still Waters Fellowship of Texas, our mission is simple: to offer veterans, first responders, and emergency personnel a place of refuge, community, and rest on the water. We organize cost-free guided fishing trips to help our heroes heal, reconnect, and build lasting bonds.

We can't do this alone. Whether you’re an experienced angler, a boat owner, or simply someone who wants to serve behind the scenes, your time and talents make these life-changing experiences possible.

How You Can Serve

1. Kayak Fishing Guides

If you know your way around a fishing kayak and love helping others catch fish, we need you on the water. As a Kayak Fishing Guide, you will:

  • Lead small-group kayak excursions on local Texas lakes and waterways.

  • Assist participants with gear setup, basic paddling techniques, and safety on the water.

  • Share local knowledge, fishing tips, and encouragement throughout the trip.

  • Requirements: Experience operating a fishing kayak, basic water safety knowledge, and a heart for mentorship.

2. Volunteer Bass Boat Captains

Not every veteran or first responder is physically able or comfortable fishing from a kayak. To ensure no hero gets left on the bank, we are looking for volunteer boat owners willing to donate their time and vessel for guided trips. As a Bass Boat Captain, you will:

  • Host 1–2 veterans or first responders on your bass boat for a day of fishing.

  • Provide a stable, accessible, and safe environment for participants who prefer or require a traditional powerboat experience.

  • Requirements: A safe, reliable bass boat, proof of insurance, and valid state boat operator credentials.

3. Shoreline & Event Support

Prefer to keep your feet on dry land? We always need volunteers to help host our events!

  • Assist with events during the year.

  • Offer prayer support, warm hospitality, and encouragement to participants and their families.

Why Volunteer?

  • Direct Impact: Help provide a peaceful, pressure-free environment for first responders and military veterans working through stress, trauma, or physical challenges.

  • Community: Connect with a network of Christian outdoor enthusiasts who share your passion for fishing and service.

  • Faith in Action: Put your faith into practice by serving as the hands and feet of Jesus to those who sacrifice so much for our communities and nation.
