Putting Faith Into Action
The MCCBR Grocery Blessing exists to put our faith into action by providing food assistance to local individuals and families who may be experiencing financial hardship or food insecurity. Through donated food, financial gifts, and volunteers, we come together as neighbors to provide practical assistance to everyone we serve.
Started by Henry Pippin, our Board Member at Large, the Grocery Blessing brings our congregation together as neighbors helping neighbors.
“You are loved. You are not alone. You belong here.”
