Love Covers

A monthly outreach in Austin, Texas

Love, with nothing asked in return.

Every month, Love Covers shares the love of Jesus with women working in Austin’s adult entertainment clubs, through gift bags and handwritten notes freely given with no strings attached.

Our story

It started on a walk.

Two years ago, Leah Carr was out on a walk when she felt the Holy Spirit put these women on her heart. Soon after, she began buying gifts with her own money, packing them herself and carrying them into the clubs.

Love Covers began as Leah’s response to God’s love in her own life, and her desire is simply to be His hands and feet. There’s no sermon in the bag and no invitation to church. Just kindness, freely given, right where each woman is.

As friends and neighbors have joined in, the bags have multiplied. Leah still delivers every one.

Every woman is created in God’s image, worthy of dignity and respect, and deeply loved by Him.
