For the past few years Hebron’s Mobilization Team has selected one of the missions we support to be the target of an end-of-year All Church Gather. This year the mission spotlighted is The Blessing Board, a non-profit organization that provides furniture and household goods to those who need them at no cost to them. Everyone who has an appointment at The Blessing Board hears the good news of the Gospel and receives a New Testament.
Like many non-profits, this year has provided a variety of challenges for The Blessing Board, causing them to shut their doors for a period of time and furlough most paid staff. When they were able to reopen, they did so with new procedures and safety protocols in place. In spite of the cancellation of major fundraising events, the faithful giving of churches like Hebron, as well as businesses and individuals, has enabled them to continue to serve those in need in our community. Nearly 1000 families will have been served by year’s end.
This is the season for giving. With this All Church Gather, we have a wonderful opportunity to give a tangible gift to someone who is struggling.
Your gift of new or gently used silverware, pots and pans, towels and washcloths will be collected on December 6, 13, and 20. Bring them to the boxes provided at the church entrances. Join with children’s ministry to flood The Blessing Board with these sorely needed items.
Visit www.TheBlessingBoard.org to learn more about The Blessing Board and how you can join with many others at Hebron to volunteer at this wonderful Christ-centered ministry that is doing great things in our community.
