If you are new to our community, you might not know much about us. Or, perhaps you’ve intersected with us at some point, like dropping off donations, but didn’t realize that we had a whole range of services. Sometimes, it is hard to explain the work which happens here to others in a concise way.

We are basically a group of people who love the Lord and want to share God’s love and to meet needs in our community in any way that we possibly can.  We’ve written these distinctives as a brief way to describe the distinctiveness of who we are and what we do.  We hope this is supportive to you, and we also hope you always know how much your support means to us, and to the work here.  Join us, won’t you?

Here are some of the distinctives of Mission Arlington^®

1. Mission Arlington^® is faith-based. People matter to God and to us.
2. We are open 364 days a year, closed only on Christmas Day. Emergency services are open 6-days a week.
3. We have longevity. We are in our 38th-year of serving this community.
4. Our administrative overhead is low – at 1.47 percent. More than 98.5% of every dollar you give ministers directly to people in need.
5. We are accountable. In addition to a local & respected board, we are audited each year. We partner with multiple charity watchdogs, in good standing with all.
6. We are holistic, caring for the physical, spiritual, emotional & educational needs of people – a kind of one-stop shop to help.
7. We are truly grateful – aware that provisions come from the Lord through a generous community.

We are so grateful for your constant support!
