Food Bank

Join us as we help feed Northeast Louisiana.

At Lakeshore Baptist Church, we believe in being the hands and feet of Jesus in our own backyard. On the first Tuesday of every month, our team heads to the Food Bank of Northeast Louisiana to help pack food boxes for seniors and families in our 12-parish region.

Whether you’re a regular or a first-timer, there’s a place for you on the line!
