Love your neighbor van on wafb
Homelessness in Baton Rouge is a pressing issue. Approximately 400 individuals daily were looking for a shelter bed as of September 2024. Many face food insecurity, especially on weekends. A mobile breakfast service on Sunday mornings, called the Love Your Neighbor van, fills this gap by delivering meals to various locations, ensuring sustenance when other resources are unavailable. The van also provides clothing, basic first aid care, shoes, nutrition drinks, and more to our homeless neighbors.
Latest Sermon
People use God’s name to do all kinds of terrible things. And for many, that misuse of God makes the very idea of God hard to accept. But what if there is a clear way to see what God is really like—a way that surprised the first people who heard it and still does today? This sermon explores one of the Bible’s best-known stories — Jesus’ triumphal entry in Jerusalem — and asks what it tells us about who God really is.
