Mission
The mission of BWC Food Pantry is to help fulfill the following scripture in the surrounding community, BWC fellowship, and requested services.
James 2:15-17 (NIV)
15 Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? 17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.
