Blessing Box

We have a blessing box located near the Preschool parking lot. Please consider supporting this mission.

Suggestions for Filling a Blessing Box

Consider shelf stable items that people might need or want in a Blessing Box: Food, personal hygiene products, household products, new clothing, etc.

The most important component of a Blessing Box is to dedicate it to God. It is really a blessing for the giver and the taker.

Please follow CDC handwashing guidance when filling your box. Disinfect the box interior and handles frequently.

Buy canned foods with pull rings when available or include small handheld can openers.
