Who We Are

Our Mission

At Melton Vending LLC, our mission is to provide services and employment opportunities to our local community in a way that honors and glorifies God. We do this in three main ways:

Serving our customers in a way that goes above and beyond expectations, with the attitude and heart of a servant, as unto the Lord. “Whatever you do, do it from the heart, as something done for the Lord and not for people, knowing that you will receive the reward of an inheritance from the Lord. You serve the Lord Christ.” — Colossians 3:23-24
Providing employment opportunities for those who need flexible, part-time work (i.e. students, retired, second job, etc.) while equipping them with the proper knowledge and tools to be successful in their role in our company and in their relationship with Jesus Christ. “Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth.” — 2 Timothy 2:15
Donating a portion of our revenue to local charities who support our community and proclaim to others the necessity of having a right relationship with God our Creator. “Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” — 2 Corinthians 9:7

Statement of Faith

We believe that God reveals Himself to us, through human authors, in both the New and Old Testaments of the Bible. The Bible is the inspired Word of God and is without error in the original writings. It communicates the complete revelation of God’s will for salvation, authority, judgment, and the future. Therefore, it is supremely important that Christ’s followers read and study the Bible to know what God has said. We do firmly believe that all who commit to reading the Bible, approaching it with a proper attitude of humility, and pray for God to give them understanding will in fact receive it!

There are four foundational truths that are taught by the Bible that become evident as one reads. Simplified they are:

God: God is holy, perfect, and creator of all things. God sets forth the moral law and demonstrates the standards that all people are held to.
Man: All people are created to bring God glory, yet all have transgressed God’s moral law. We are fallen and sinful human beings, and we are unable to redeem ourselves before God. God is just to punish us for our disobedience.
Jesus: All people need a perfect, sinless Savior to die for them, once for all who God has elected, offered as a holy sacrifice, so that we may be redeemed from our sin. God’s Son Jesus Christ is this sacrifice. Jesus rose from the dead and ascended to God the Father after His crucifixion, confirming His deity and perfection.
Respond: For anyone to be saved from God’s just wrath, God must stir in their heart, and they must act, in repentance (turning away) from their sin, confess, “Jesus is Lord”, and believe in His resurrection.

These truths, revealed to us by God in His Word, are not simply a religious belief, but rather are something that influences every decision we make. It is from hearts that have responded to the Gospel of faith with repentance and belief that we are able to serve, provide for, and donate to our community.
