Share the Blessing
Share the Blessing is one of Crozet Baptist Church's Love Your Neighbor Ministries (LYN) that provide services to those in our area in need.
Share The Blessing is a Thanksgiving meal ministry that provides a complete meal to families in need of a little extra help during the holiday season. This ministry has been a tremendous relief to so many families over the years. We work with guidance counselors, family support workers, and social workers throughout Western Albemarle County who refer families to the project. Groceries are distributed the weekend before Thanksgiving and are a complete Thanksgiving feast including a family-sized turkey, green beans, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, mac 'n cheese, stuffing, gravy, and pie.
…And who is my neighbor? Luke 10:29b
