Our Heart for Service
God wants everyone to have the opportunity to be their best, but we know that barriers in our imperfect world can make that difficult. At Friendship Baptist Church, we want to do more than just share the story of Jesus; we want to offer a helping hand and a true friend to those facing challenges. Whether it is visiting neighbors in local retirement homes or providing basic needs for our area schools, we are committed to loving our community through simple, consistent acts of service.
Friendship Boxes
Our Friendship Boxes are a labor of love created by the members of our church. We gather essential items like toiletries, socks, and blankets, and add personal touches like hand-crocheted flowers, art supplies, and cheerful door hangers. These packages are delivered to local nursing homes as a reminder to our seniors that they are loved and prayed for. As soon as we are able, we look forward to hand-delivering these gifts and spending time getting to know our neighbors better.
Supporting Our Schools
We believe that every child deserves the chance to learn and every teacher the chance to teach without the worry of missing supplies. Because providing for every classroom is a challenge for many families, our church collects and delivers basic school essentials to local schools throughout the year. By providing notebooks, pencils, and paper, we hope to ensure that every child walks into their classroom with the tools they need to succeed and the knowledge that their community supports them.
