🎉✨ Happy New Year from First Refuge Ministries ✨🎉

“This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” — Psalm 118:24 (KJV)

As we step into a new year, we do so with grateful hearts and renewed faith. We thank God for His faithfulness in the past year and for every donor, volunteer, church partner, community partner, and staff member who made it possible to serve families with compassion, dignity, and hope.

With expectancy and trust in the Lord, we look ahead to all that He will continue to do in and through First Refuge Ministries. May this new year be filled with purpose, peace, and continued opportunities to serve others in love.

Wishing you and your family a blessed, joyful, and prosperous New Year.

🧻💙 This Is What Community Care Looks Like 💙🧻

A heartfelt thank you to the Bible Boomer Life Group of First Denton for their generous donation of 468+ rolls of toilet paper to support families served through our food pantry.

Items like these often go unnoticed, yet they are essential for dignity and daily living. Because of your generosity, families walking through our doors will receive not only food, but practical support that truly meets real needs.

Your willingness to give reminds us that small acts, when multiplied, create powerful impact. Thank you for showing up for our community in such a meaningful way.
