The Blessing Box was established, in the memory of Bob Forbes, in the spring of 2020 and dedicated on June 20, 2020. It is an extension of our mission's ministry to our community. Its purpose is to provide food and miscellaneous items for families that are in need of some additional help. No questions asked. As the words on the door read: Take what you need; Leave what you can. Little becomes much in the Master's Hand.
Norm Richie built the Blessing Box, David and Trisha Myers painted it and the Youth enjoyed painting the artwork you will see on the outside. The church congregation and friends within the community refill the Blessing Box to keep the ministry alive. Please keep in mind the weather when adding items. Jars or can goods and certain items will not fare well during freezing or extreme heat conditions. An exploded item could destroy the entire contents of the blessing box. A BIG THANK YOU to those who are keeping the ministry alive and well.
In addition, we extended the Blessing Box to fulfil other needs of the community. This winter we hung bags with a coat, hat and gloves for those who had a need. There will be other extended ministries items throughout the year. Below is the dedication video and a few pictures of the ministry.
May God Bless all those who have benefited from the Blessing Box and for those who keep the Blessing Box Ministry alive.
