Birthed in the heart of Marshall and Pattie Parker, the Blessing Network has evolved into a joint effort among friends, neighbors, churches, and fellow agencies to help those in need. We are Christians who feel led by God to help people in need, in ways that we are able. He has blessed us with certain abilities and resources that we want to share. Our BURDEN for others extends to the elderly, the handicapped, widows, orphans, single parents and others having a hard time financially. Our GOAL is to lend a helping hand, in the name of Jesus, to help people through hard times, to help them on their way to financial improvement. Our HOPE is that you will see the love of Christ through us, as He is loving you and providing for you. Faith-Based InitiativeWe work from a non-denominational Christian worldview, serving others without regard to religion, creed, race, nationality, culture, etc. Although the emphasis is on needy people who cannot work, we serve others who are struggling financially. Needs we help meet:We have been able to help people find appliances, furniture, clothes and shoes, food, household items, and even vehicles. Donations are accepted from private and public sources, and distributed to our clients at no cost. We depend on private contributions to help meet costs. Handyman work is provided at low or no cost to those who show need and have a critical job that needs done for safety or health purposes.
