The congregation in our church had historically exchanged Christmas cards with one another during the weeks leading up to Christmas. However, for the 2017 Christmas season, the pastor asked if we would do something different. Instead of exchanging Christmas cards, he asked if we would use the money normally spent on buying the cards, to purchase and bring in, cans of food. The cans of food would then be given to the local food pantries. We thought about how the Christmas cards provided words of inspiration that feeds the soul, while the cans of food provided nourishment that feeds the body and we were inspired by God to combine the two. The Can-Covers wrap around cans of food and offer inspirational words (usually bible verses). This combination feeds both body and soul.
Consider feeding body and soul as part of a Can-Cover Ministry. Cans of vegetables are wrapped with custom Can-Covers and then given to local food pantries for distribution. Each Can-Cover contains two inspirational bible verses meant to uplift and inspire the reader. Sometimes, a simple bible verse can be just enough to help someone get through a rough time in their life. There are over 28 different Can-Covers available for many of the holidays.
The Can-Covers are available in English and Spanish. Please click on the appropriate link below to view and download the Can-Cover origin story, as well as the free instructions and free printable custom Can-Covers.
