"A generous man will himself be blessed, for he
shares his food with the poor." (Proverbs 22:9) |

The primary focus of our Benevolence Ministry is to meet the material needs of people in
our church and community who are experiencing difficult times. |

Thanksgiving Outreach Through the generosity of our church family and local schools we have been able to bless those in need by distributing more than 60 Thanksgiving Dinner Baskets each year. Food Bank The Beacon Food Bank operates all year round. We distribute 3-day emergency food bags of non-perishable items. Our Food Bank is stocked through the generous donations of our church family, local schools and civic programs. |

Christmas Adopt a Child Each Christmas we place a Christmas Tree in our lobby with over 150 tags on it naming children in our nearby communities and schools whose families are experiencing difficulties at Christmas. Our church family graciously contributes gifts for the children, which are then distributed anonymously to the children's families. This Christmas Gift outreach to our community is a blessing to both the giver and receiver, as the love of Jesus is shared to those in need. |
