Buckets of Blessing

Let’s Talk!

Email

As part of the 2022 IBSA Annual Meeting, we are encouraging messengers to bring items to bless the Baptist Children’s Home and Family Services, along with the Christian Activities Center of East St. Louis. Our goal is to fill buckets with items that have been requested by these ministries to meet needs and ensure our partners have additional resources to bless those they serve.

We have received request lists from Angels’ Cove, Pathways Counseling, the Baptist Children’s Home Pantry and the Christian Activities Center. Please collect items from the list and send them with your messengers to the IBSA Annual Meeting. We’ll fill and distribute Buckets of Blessings showing once again how Illinois Baptist care for children and desire to bless in Jesus’ name.

IBSA has also made buckets available for Baptist Associations to have their own Bucket of Blessings challenge to share Christ’s love in a local project.

As a network of churches on mission we can impact many!
