The Bed Brigade of St. John’s Lutheran

A woman from St. John's told me about this vital ministry when she delivered baby gifts to the pregnancy center--the bed brigade. Watch the video. Very touching.

This is one of the most interesting and unique ministries I’ve heard about.  Church members build bed frames, supply new mattresses, and then witness to the recipient about the love of Jesus when they are delivered to homes in need.

Our Purpose: We have been called by God to build beds and deliver them free of charge to those in our midst who need them.  In doing this, we are engaging our church family of St. Johns in a service ministry that meets a very basic need that is unmet for so many.  This allows Jesus to work through our hands to love others on his behalf.  Our purpose is to meet a real need and to point others to the love and truth of Jesus Christ.

There is also one in Circleville.

St. John’s is located at 3220 Columbus Street, Grove City, Ohio, 43123 ~ (614)875-2314.  Scott Ness is the Associate Pastor at St. John’s.  I watched him grow up; in fact I remember when his mom was pregnant.
