Luke 3:11
“Anyone who has two shirts should share with the one who has none,
and anyone who has food should do the same.”
Hebrews 13:16
“And do not forget to do good and to share with others,
for with such sacrifices God is pleased.”
Food Drive

"LET'S TACKLE HUNGER" The February Mission will be a food drive as well as cash donations to benefit the Buxton Community Cupboard and will “Kick Off” with the Annual “Souper” Bowl Food Drive on Sunday, February 13th. As we plan our menus for the BIG GAME let's think of those who aren't able to put together a special spread or even put a meal on the table. Let's help those people by donating canned food items and non-perishable food items along with cash donations. The items collected will help those who are falling on hard times in the community. Please bring items to the church on Sunday morning or call the church 929-3535 or Judy 929-5555 to make arrangements to get them. Thanks for your generosity! |
The Buxton Community Cupboard has been serving the Buxton community for many years. It is located in the little white house (see picture to the left) behind the parsonage of the Buxton Centre Baptist Church that is located at 938 Long Plains Rd, Buxton, ME 04093.
This organization relies on donations of food from the good citizens of Buxton, food drives at businesses, schools and cash donations which are spent on food items.
They are always looking for new people to help. Contact them if you would like to help volunteer! Hours of Operation: Friday mornings 9:30 am to 10:30 am. If you would like more information about their services or would like to volunteer please call (207) 929-6764 and ask for Betty.
Our patrons appreciate personal and household goods when we have them.
