The Blessing Box is a free pantry located in front of the church. It provides non-perishable food (like cereal, canned soup/pasta, granola bars) as well as hygiene items (including shampoo, soap, toothbrushes/toothpaste, and toilet paper) to local residents when they need them. Feel free to take anything. Food and hygiene item donations are also accepted.

The Senior Lunch is a relationship-centered ministry that gathers every third Wednesday at noon to share a meal, participate in table fellowship, hear stories from local residents, and learn about various community resources. The program is open to all seniors in the community.
