ARLINGTON (CBSNewsTexas.com) — Mission Arlington/Mission Metroplex was founded by Tillie Burgin back in 1986.

"It began with a Bible study in an apartment," said Burgin, the nonprofit's executive director.

The organization currently serves 2,000 people every day, providing food, furniture, clothing and medical care for free. "They come here without much and so when they leave, we want them to know that they have found significance...they've been in the presence of the Lord, so that kind of love, you can't explain but you sure can enjoy it," said Burgin.
