Bangor Parish Church share hope with their neighbours

Congratulations to Bangor Parish Church who have spent six months knocking doors and hand–delivering 4000 ‘boxes of hope’ across the town.

The Church conceived the project We Are With You – Hope for the Road to Recovery as a means of bringing hope and encouragement to their neighbours. The boxes of hope contained chocolate, coffee, tea, and a leaflet produced by the church and were distributed by a team of 50 volunteers.

Some of the parish Community Groups took on the project and met in groups of 6–8 initially to pack boxes, then in pairs or triplets to deliver them. 

For those who didn’t feel confident knocking doors they could still participate and joined the team for the purpose of praying.

The project drew an overwhelmingly positive response which you will see from the video below.
