Help us bless local families with grocery gift cards at the Milton Food Lion.

A grocery bill can carry a lot of pressure. During Serve Local, The Crossing will meet community members at the Milton Food Lion and surprise them with grocery gift cards as a practical expression of God’s love.

This is a chance to encourage someone, meet a real need, and remind our neighbors that they are seen and cared for. Come ready to serve with kindness, listen well, and help create a meaningful moment for families in our community.

What to Wear: Your Serve Local shirt and weather-appropriate clothing
Registration: Please submit one registration per person serving.
