In small towns, neighbors have always taken care of one another. Whether it’s dropping off a meal, lending a hand, or checking in during hard times, that spirit of kindness is part of who we are. One of the newest and simplest ways to carry on that tradition is through something called a blessing box.
Colossians 3:12-14 NIV 12 Therefore, as GOD’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. 13 Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you have a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. 14 And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.
