In The Community


Blessing Box

The Spring Hill Blessing Box is located in the church parking lot. People who are in need may stop in and help themselves. Those led by generosity may stop by and refill the box with non-perishable, new (unexpired) packaged food items.
Please support those in the greater Mansfield community who are struggling with hunger.
