A Box of Love Led to a Changed Life
When a group of high-school girls from one Holden Heights ministry delivered a Box of Love to a woman last year, it became clear that the woman did not know Christ — but wanted to. After hearing a simple presentation of the gospel, the woman gave her life to Christ.
This year we are distributing at least 300 Boxes of Love, enough to feed a holiday meal to 1800 people. Evangelism training is November 8 (see details at right), and packing and delivery is November 22 at our offices at Restore Orlando on West Kaley Avenue.
You can be a part of this outreach by making up a Box of Love and dropping it off. For information about how please click here.

Forty-three guests came from several Orlando-area churches and ministries — along with members of Here's Life Inner City and The JESUS Film Project — to view the film. More...

On our very first afternoon we held an outreach at a run-down trailer park on Orange Blossom Trail (OBT). We met Vanessa. She was sitting at the bus stop. We almost passed her by, but as soon as we told her about our outreach and free food, she came right over. More...
