Metropolitan Charities is a 501c3 non-profit organization. We are currently serving all the communities in the DFW area. Our goal is to improve the standard of living for every member of our community.
With our partnering sponsors, we are able to help people find employment, award worthy students with scholarships who are lacking the funds, and provide food and clothing assistance for many families. Metropolitan Charities also provides assistance for disaster relief and holds an annual Christmas Program entitled "A Touch of Christmas" - where 500 children receive christmas gifts.
Jose Gomez is the founder of this organization. As a child growing up in Cali, Colombia his mother taught him the importance of helping those who are less fortunate. Although his family was struggling themselves, his mother never hesistated to provide food for children who were hungry, and she brought them into her home as if they were her own. This wonderful example instilled a sprit of giving within Jose's heart. His desire is not only to impact his community through charitable services but to show show Christ to each family he encounters.
Who I'd like to meet: Sponsors, other charitable organizations, volunteers, people in need of God and assistance.

John 20:4 So they ran both together: and the other disciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the sepulchre.
5 And he stooping down, and looking in, saw the linen clothes lying; yet went he not in.
6 Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie,
7 And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself.
8 Then went in also that other disciple, which came first to the sepulchre, and he saw, and believed.
9 For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.
10 Then the disciples went away again unto their own home.
11 But Mary stood without at the sepulchre weeping: and as she wept, she stooped down, and looked into the sepulchre,
12 And seeth two angels in white sitting, the one at the head, and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.
13 And they say unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? She saith unto them, Because they have taken away my LORD, and I know not where they have laid him.
14 And when she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus.
15 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away.
16 Jesus saith unto her, Mary. She turned herself, and saith unto him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master.
17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.
I do hope and I trust in our Lord that He has truly been providing you and your family with wonderful blessings! I am planning on being in Dallas on April 3-7 and I would thoroughly enjoy some time to visit with everyone. Take care and I hope to hear from you soon!!!!
Thanks for allowing us to be your friends. Our computer has been down a couple of weeks so we haven't been able to get back to you. May the Lord continue to pour out His Blessings thru you so that kids have Christmas, families have food and clothing, and souls are drawn closer to Him. Your friends in Christ, Keith & Karen
Thank you for the add. Sorry I haven't been by already, but I jus haven't been on the net much lately. I hope things are going okkay there for you and the ministry. May God always be with you in all you do, and bless you always. Take care.
I felt God telling me to contribute and I just followed his command and I am so glad that money was used to help Kalel get the medicane and I am so glad that she is doing better because of it, our God works in miracolus ways and may all glory and honor be unto his name. I have sent you a message with my email address if Kalel's mom wants to write me a email but all Glory definetly goes to God for his great timing and awesomness in providing for Kalel through me.
