Thanksgiving Community Outreach

November 16, 2025

For the 2nd year, Greater New Guide will partner with the North Baton Rouge Chamber of Commerce to host their Annual Thanksgiving Food Drive. This cherished community outreach effort helps North Baton Rouge families in need during the holiday season.

This year GNG has gone a step further. To help fill the baskets, we have committed to providing 100 boxes of cake mix. We are asking our members to help us reach that goal.  Beginning October 5th, a collection box will be located in the East wing of the church and at the Family Life Center.

We are in need of volunteers, so please sign up to help make this event a success. Sign up sheets are on the bulletin boards, at the Family Life Center and our website.
