Home sweet home. Returning after a day at school. Students and families appreciate Mission Arlington transportation. Many students are transported to and from school every day.

Mission Arlington^® coordinates with the Arlington Independent School District to transport students to school in neighborhoods where those students are too close for the school bus to pick them up, but also far enough away that the students would have to cross busy and dangerous intersections in order to arrive safely at school.

Twice a day, five days each week, Mission Arlington^® drivers pick up and deliver students from their home to the schools, and then back again. This provides help to working families who otherwise would have to let their children walk to school.   As you can see from the picture of happy children above, being a part of this ministry is quite a blessing.

The mission also takes the children of AISD teenagers to childcare, so that the mother can stay in school, complete her education, and build a better life for themselves over time. Something as simple as transportation makes a huge difference.

Through the summer, the transportation ministry slows down a bit, but when school starts again in the Fall, as it has now, it ramps up in a big way.  We are grateful for the individuals and organizations that donated the buses and vans which the mission uses for this work, and for the volunteer drivers along the way who help us to provide a fun and loving experience for the students.

We are grateful for the multiple ways that each of you support our work. It is precious cargo, indeed. Thank you.
