In Matthew, we are called to be the light of the world; to be a source of comfort and reassurance to those we meet along our faith journey. I invite you to be that source of illumination during this Easter season by making a “Second Mile” Easter offering that will support three life-changing ministries.
The Mission parking lot has been transformed into a sacramental table that respectfully feeds people in body, mind, and spirit.
Please join me Sunday for the historic Next90 vote by voting “YES” and then again on September 17 to “get up and give” to these life-changing organizations as part of North Texas Giving Day.
Over these past 4 months, I have been unbelievably grateful for First Street Methodist Mission for a variety of selfish reasons.

Giving made easy. That is what North Texas Giving Day is all about and it will be happening on Thursday, September 20.
One in four children face hunger in our community. Help us give the gift of food this holiday season through our annual Red Bag Food Drive.
