Leave what you can,

take what you need

The SAPC Blessing Box is a resource for non-perishable food items and other supplies available to anyone in the community that may need support. Located at the front of our parking lot near Whiskey Rd., all are welcome to participate in this ministry by either taking donations from the box for personal use, or donating items to stock it for others.

The Blessing Box was dedicated to the local Aiken community on Sunday, June 23rd. Overflow donations can be dropped off at the church office during open office hours.

To report a concern with our blessing box, please fill out this form to notify an SAPC staff member.
