You are invited to attend a Love INC volunteer orientation to learn more about how you can use your gifts to help someone in need. Please join us Thursday, February 17th at 5:00 pm to explore how God can use you to bring change in our community through the ministry of Love INC Boise.

Love INC staff & volunteers wish to thank all who made our "Basket of Blessings" Ministry a blessed success!

Thanks to all who made our “Basket of Blessings” Christmas ministry a success! We received so many  generous donations of baskets, candies, oranges, books, family games, hot chocolate mugs, pot holders, scarves, hats, blankets and pillowcases (many handmade  from volunteers in our “Loved … Sew Much!” sewing ministry!), that we were able to assemble 51 gift baskets for  48 of our client families!

Individuals, families and churches all came together to brighten Christmas for our client families.  Donations poured in from caring Christians from Boise Friends Church, Boise First Community Center,  Cornerstone Community Church, Covenant Presbyterian Church, Parkview Bible Church and many others. Various business offices donated baskets and teachers from Horizon Elementary delivered baskets to our clients. Teams of carolers from The Vineyard Christian Fellowship delivered Christmas hope with song, love and baskets in hand!  Families and small groups from Boise Church of Christ , Boise Valley Christian Communion Church, Calvary Baptist Church, Cloverdale URC, Foothills Christian Church, Heritage Bible Church and Southside Christian Center also met client families with baskets in hand.

A family who delivered baskets was so touched by the experience that she wrote the following: “When we told a family we hoped the basket would be some help, they told us ‘every little bit helps’ . They thanked us and told us that they were going to put the basket away until Christmas day. Then he said, ‘You know a quarter is not worth anything until you don’t have one’ . What an impact that quote has made in our lives. The families were so greatful and when we saw their needs we realized how blessed we truly are. We’re glad to be a part of Love INC and to be used to spread God’s love through this ministry. PS: Everyone should deliver baskets to families in need before you do your shopping. You’ll have a new outlook on how blessed you are and the real meaning of Christmas!”.
