Blessing Box
Christ Church’s newest and most visible outreach mission is the Blessing Box recently installed between the side ramp and the stairs to the kitchen. This outdoor food pantry is available to neighbors and anyone in need. We can all participate by keeping it full of non-perishable food items. Pick up a few items as you shop for groceries and then place them in the Blessing Box when you come to church or anytime you are in the area. Canned meats and vegetables, tuna, peanut butter, soup, cereal, and crackers are always good choices.
The Kairos mission is to share the transforming love and forgiveness of Jesus Christ to impact the hearts and lives of incarcerated men, women and youth, as well as their families, to become loving and productive citizens of their communities.
