St. John’s Blessings Box

The unlocked lockers above are the new Blessings Box on Saint John’s Episcopal Church porch, located at 101 South Prospect Street. It is a “give what you can for those who have a need” blessings box. These lockers are a continuation of serving the community but on a self-serve model.

A list of suggested food, toiletries, paper products, and cleaning supplies will be posted on the boxes. What you can spare will be a gift to another. There are no guarantees of what will be in these lockers, but with each change in season the box might have more school supplies in the late summer and perhaps gloves before the winter. In the middle of winter, we may see more paper products and non-freezing toiletries. The ideas are endless.
Saint John’s gives to Micah’s Backpack; we give to Families Helping Families; we give to Bester Elementary School. These are gifts to our community. Today, there is one more opportunity to reach out and share the gifts God has given.

Many thanks to Saint John’s Senior Warden for making a dream come true by spiffing up the lockers donated by Kelly Moore Sheds and Marketplace. For more information contact deacon.stjohns@myactv.net
