Food Ministry
You Can't Think About Much Else When You're Hungry
Not everyone has had to choose between paying bills and buying groceries. Yet, these kinds of circumstances are all around us, leading many families to live with worry, hopelessness and despair. The Brookwood Food ministry exists to help families and individuals in our church and community who have to face this situation day in and day out. We offer more than just groceries. We also offer the hope and encouragement that allows families and individuals to focus on the other important aspects of life like the job that is desperately needed, that night class that moves them closer to better opportunities or that small group that connects with the body of Christ.
Join us in the Food Ministry, where we see the smiles of relief and tears of gratitude from people who have benefited from the generosity of others. The ministry provides food to
• People who don’t know God.
• Single-parent homes.
• Families who attend Brookwood and others who don’t.
• Individuals struggling with addiction.

The Sharing Garden
If you enjoy gardening consider joining our network of volunteers who grow and donate produce from their own gardens and maintain the garden here at Brookwood. Fresh produce is given to families in our church and community. It's also used to supplement food packages given through the Brookwood Food Ministry.
