My Story…
Light of Life Rescue Mission is a Christian based organization benefitting those in need. We like to honor the memory of Tunch Ilkin - a man of God and great faith who has entered into eternal life. Tunch's personal example inspired others to change the world one person at a time at a personal level. I was wearing one of the Light of Life Rescue Mission team relay shirts and I was in the line at a local grocery store. The gentleman behind me said Light of Life Rescue Mission helped him in his time of need over 20 years ago. Tunch knew the true meaning of life - it is not about being wealthy or powerful. It is about sharing the blessings we have with all.
