The Blessing Tree

The Blessing Tree at Vine & Branch Fellowship

The Blessing Tree is a ministry of hope and encouragement for single parents during what can be a stressful time of year. At Vine & Branch Fellowship, we recognize the incredible challenges single moms and dads face as they work tirelessly to raise their children alone. Through the Blessing Tree, we aim to lighten their load and show the love of Christ in a tangible way. 

Whoever brings blessing will be enriched, and one who waters will himself be watered. Proverbs 11:25

How It Works:

There are two ways to participate in this meaningful ministry:

If you know a single parent who could use a blessing this season, simply provide their name, email, phone number, and a list of their children’s needs (e.g., “Girl, size 7 shoes, size 8 jeans, medium shirts”). All information is kept anonymous to preserve dignity and respect for the family.

Participate by choosing a tag (or more than one!) from the Blessing Tree, which lists the needs of a child or parent. Use the sign out sheet to sign out the tags you've chosen. Purchase the items on the tag(s), or if you prefer, make a donation for those items and we will do the shopping for you! Return the gifts or gift cards to the church UNWRAPPED and be sure to include the tag(s) to ensure your gifts reach the correct person. 

Please do not donate used items. 

Please be sure to bring your gifts in by the indicated date so we have time to wrap and distribute them.

This ministry is open to both single moms and dads, and families that need some support during the holidays, ensuring that every parent feels valued and supported. Join us in making this season a little brighter for those who are working so hard to care for their children. 

Call 209-736-9338 and speak with Cristi, our Connect Director, to submit the names and needs of single parents or to learn how you can support these single parents.
