Samaritan Works "Blessings in a Box"

Participants of Samaritan Works, a faith-based sober living program, recently placed a “Blessing Box” outside their office at 315 East Court St. Executive Director Tricia Alloway stated that giving back to the community is an essential part of recovery. “Recognizing where we have been and where we are heading is part of the journey.” Participants put together the box and painted it. The box will be filled with free hats, gloves, food, and other free items for those who might need a helping hand. Director Alloway added that a prayer request box is also inside the cabinet. Prayer requests should be completed and dropped in the mailbox on our door. Participants will pray for those requesting it! Samaritan Works programming encourages those involved to pay forward a little of what has been given. The public is welcome to take items as needed. For more information on Samaritan Works, please get in touch with the office at 937.638.4545 or visit us on Facebook or our website at www.samaritanworks.org. Samaritan Works is a partner agency of the Shelby County United Way.
