What is a Blessing Box?

​A “Blessing Box" is filled with food and other small items available to any and all who are in need. The concept is simple. The box is a miniature food pantry. You can take items from the box if you are in need, or you can donate food or small personal items.

We realize that there are occasions when people need food and/or personal items right away and just can’t wait to travel to local food pantries. FBC’s Blessing Box is a small way to minister to our community and it's open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We will never know how many people our blessing box will help, but we are trusting that God will work in the hearts of those families that benefit from this blessing.
