Box of Love

Love in Every Box, Hope in Every Meal

For over 15 years the Mission has worked together with hundreds of volunteers and community partners to distribute more than 1,000 Thanksgiving meals annually during it's Turkey Bag Distribution. As we prepare for this upcoming holiday season, we are thrilled to continue with our revitalized Thanksgiving outreach - Box of Love!

The Mission will continue to provide all the fixings for a traditional Thanksgiving meal for a family of 4-5 people, with a focus on sharing the good news of the Gospel alongside a delicious holiday feast.

Each Box of Love includes side dishes, a turkey, homemade dessert, and a Bible!
