“He Makes All Things New” – 2016 Arrives
Mission Arlington® is “off and running” for the new year.
2016 has arrived, and we find ourselves grateful for the privilege we have of serving for another year in this community. We will turn 30 years-old this August, and we are excited about that.
Tillie Burgin, our Executive Director, has been here from the start, and she still leads us, under God, with passion for God and for people, a commitment to excellence in every area, and to loving all people. Tillie reminds the team here constantly that the most important word in John 3:16 is “whosoever,” because God’s love extends to everyone, so that there is “no one who should ever be left out.”
Our heart here is not just to “give out food and clothes,” but to treat people with the dignity and respect they deserve as people created by God. We are passionate about the privilege we have here every day of loving people and, by God’s grace and your support, providing authentic help. We can do this, because of your faithful support.
We are open today, already helping families in need, and looking forward to greeting you when you drop by. We will be here every day this year, 364 days, making sure we don’t miss the life of any person or family.
Your continued prayers, volunteer assistance, and financial support make such a big difference here. We are grateful for the privilege we have of walking this journey with you through this new year. Daily, we thank God for you. Surely, our Lord “makes all things new” (Rev. 21:5).
We are grateful.
