Sports. Mentoring. Leadership. www.mercystreetdallas.org We strive every day to empower the next generation of Christian leaders to transform their communities.
Believing youth are the greatest asset for the future of their community and transformation best occurs in the context of relationship, we value people over programs to see lasting change realized. Everything we do exists to cultivate mutually transforming relationships with inner-city youth through Christian Mentorship
We believe true and lasting change will be brought about by the residents, particularly the children, of this community. Mercy Street's hope is to raise a new generation of leaders from the community to be the change agents of tomorrow. Sometimes an infusion of hope and help from the outside is all that is needed to make a monumental difference. That is where our mentors, coaches, and volunteers come in. They are tasked with being an encourager, friend, and advisor to the children over the course of many years. Mercy Street also seeks to be "incarnational" in our ministry efforts, meaning we relocate to the place where we minister in order to put flesh on the redemptive message of the gospel. Whether a physical relocation (like most of our staff) or a mental relocation (like most of our mentors), we invite everyone to take on the cares and concerns of the community as their own. We believe this is part of “loving our neighbors as ourselves.”
At Mercy Street, we prayerfully work together to push back against the thorns and thistles that have taken root in West Dallas so that God's Kingdom reign might be evident. Urban decay points to spiritual decay. As Christians it is our delightful responsibility to enter into the dark places of the world and let the light of Christ shine. Light always repels darkness. Join the movement and shine the light of Christ in our community.

📆 We’re counting down to Mercy Street’s 23rd Annual Luncheon! On October 13th, we’ll gather with friends, partners, volunteers and supporters to celebrate another incredible year of God’s faithfulness and the impact being made in the lives of young people and families across West and South Dallas.
This year, we are honored to recognize Ray and Denise Nixon with the Bill Farrell Catalyst Award and Coach Wayne Bradford with the Trey Hill Community Hero Award. Their commitment to young people and our community reflects the heart of Mercy Street’s mission.
We look forward to celebrating them, sharing stories from this past year and giving thanks for every person who has helped us walk alongside young people as they discover their God-given potential.
Only a handful of tickets remain, so RSVP today to join us and see what God is doing through Mercy Street.

🥹 This morning, our team woke up to discover the incredible blessing of YOUR gifts to Mercy Street yesterday. Over $431,000 was donated this year during North Texas Giving Day, surpassing our $350,000 goal and setting our new fundraising record for this annual campaign.
We cannot begin to thank God and you enough for your continual support across our Sports, Mentoring, Leadership, After School and Summer Camp programs for the children of West and South Dallas. By His grace, we pledge to continue serving and encouraging those children in record numbers and showing them His love.
THANK YOU. 🫶🏽

Today is the big day! Thanks to so many of your early gifts, we are closer than ever to unlocking the full $150,000 in matching grants this North Texas Giving Day. If you have already given, thank you! Your swift generosity helped us build momentum right out of the gate, and it is already changing what is possible for the children and families we serve.
If you have not given yet, you still have time before midnight tonight. Every gift made before midnight tonight will be matched dollar for dollar, doubling your impact for the record 6,151 children who came through our Sports, Mentoring, Leadership, After School and Summer Camp programs this past year.
These are children building trusted relationships, discovering their talents and gifts, and experiencing the transforming love of Jesus through the adults who show up for them day after day. Your gift today helps our programs continue growing and reaching more young lives.
Please give before midnight and help us unlock this full match.
Thank you for remembering Mercy Street today. And to every donor giving today to any of the many incredible causes across North Texas: thank you. What a blessing it is to be part of a community that shows up this generously for its neighbors. We are cheering on every organization in this fight alongside you, and we are so grateful to be counted among them.
With gratitude,
