3 college students from Campus Crusade at Mission Arlington

Two groups of students arrived at Mission Arlington today. Campus Crusade for Christ brought 500 college students from Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, and from across Texas to help Mission Arlington. They came to Arlington on mission as a part of their winter conference.

After a time of training, these energetic and gifted young people fanned out across Arlington to distribute food, play games with children, and to share the good news of God’s love.

A second group - 100 high school students from a variety of cities around the Metroplex also came to lend a helping hand.

These students come to Mission Arlington/Mission Metroplex most every year, just as the year begins.  They are a part of an organization called Camp Fort Worth.  They stayed for several hours, and helped us get quite a bit of work done.

Mission Arlington is grateful for partnerships with ministry organizations like these as we work together to make a difference in our community.
