We are open & ready to serve

BRINGING HOPE & SUPPORT TO THE SEACOAST

At Operation Blessing, we’re more than a resource—we’re a community of compassion, hope, and dignity. Serving our neighbors in need, we offer nourishing food through a unique shopping-style pantry, clothing and household essentials, warm showers, and a safe place to gather.

Every program we offer, from our weekend café to our warming center, is designed to restore not just physical needs, but also the sense of connection and care every person deserves. Together, with the help of volunteers, donors,

and friends like you, we’re building a place where everyone feels seen, supported, and loved.

If you need assistance or know of someone in need, we invite you to call us at 603-430-8561 for an appointment.

Our Mission

Operation Blessing fights poverty by embracing Individuals and families in crisis with compassion, offering hope and healing for changed lives. We do this by:

Transaction

We provide food, clothing, and household necessities to those in need. 

Transition

We promote healthy life choices through targeted community education and outreach programs. 

Transformation

We offer hope for a changed life that comes through faith in Christ. 

"Remember, our message is not about ourselves; we're proclaiming Jesus Christ, the Master. All we are is messengers, errand runners from Jesus for you. It started when God said, 'Light up the darkness!' and our lives filled up with light as we saw and understood God in the face of Christ, all bright and beautiful."

2 Corinthians 4: 5-7 MSG
