If you're referring to the large church on Warm Springs they burn cardboard boxes on Tue mornings because they run a food pantry for hundreds of needy families in the area who depend on the food donations to get by. They collect the food from many of the area distributors and all that food comes packed in boxes and they need to dispose of them. It is such a worthy operation run by the kindest people you could ever meet. Walk over there some morning and ask for Steve or Kathy who run the program, you may even end up volunteering! :-)
