Community Meal

 

BNF offers a free community meal each Saturday at 4:30PM.  Volunteers are always appreciated!

Food Pantry

 

Our weekly food pantry is held every Saturday from 4:45-5:30PM.  We distribute several tons of food to food insecure residents each month.  Volunteers are essential to the success of this ministry!

SERVE

 

Each June, the youth from Union Chapel Ministries give one week of their time to SERVE our City.  The SERVE team helps us with our efforts to serve our community. Teams clean up and beautify our campus, neighborhood, nearby parks, serve in our Food Pantry, prepare meals, work in our gardens, spend time building relationships with the youth in our summer recreation program and so much more.

Neighborhood Beautification

 

Each year we are blessed by various youth groups and ministry teams that come to serve with us in our nearby downtown neighborhoods.  They also provide yard work for our elderly neighbors.
