Giving doesn’t always mean money. Local organizations need your time, talents & prayers.  Today is Giving Tuesday!  On this special day we’re encouraged to help great organizations in our communities. You can make a donation, volunteer your time or spread awareness, so that others can pitch in too. One of my favorite places to support is Mission Arlington/ Mission Metroplex, where these two lovely ladies have been blessing people for years!  ~ Starlene Stringer

I’m bored! Kids say it all the time. But DISD high school student, Ty’Viana Woodard, found a great way to stay busy. She picked up sewing during the pandemic and perfected it.

Off-duty Dallas Fire-Rescue Captain, Kenneth Zacharie, says a young life was recently saved because, "God put the right people in the right place at the right time.” He was one of them.

A local teacher went above and beyond and was blessed for it. When Ms. White found out many of her students had never gotten on a plane. She decided to change that. This amazing first grade teacher made her classroom look like the inside of an airplane. She made “boarding tickets” for each student and served her young passenger snacks, as they pretended to fly to Mexico. Video of their special trip went viral and Dalla-based Southwest Airlines invited all the first graders in Ms. White’s school to visit their headquarters, board a real plane and enjoy some Southwest hospitality on their special day. Then the Love Field based carrier gave all the teachers and the principal, real tickets to fly anywhere they want to go. Take a look!  ~ Starlene Stringer (photo credit: Southwest Airlines)
