"To whom much is given, much will be required." — Luke 12:48

As America turns 250, BCM's answer to that question has been 30 years of stewardship — grants, chaplaincy, and Congregational Wellness across Greater New Orleans.

Happy 4th of July from all of us at #BCM.

Fathers shape families. Families strengthen communities. And strong communities are exactly what Greater New Orleans is built on. Today, we honor dads & father figures who show up every day — in homes, in congregations, and in neighborhoods across our region. Happy Father's Day!

#Juneteenth honors the resilience, faith, and contributions of a people who never stopped believing freedom would come. At #BCM, we serve Greater New Orleans because we believe every person deserves to be seen and strengthened.
Happy Juneteenth.

Today, we remember.
#MemorialDay is more than a long weekend. The freedoms we carry into our communities were paid for by those who gave everything. BCM honors those who lived that commitment fully.
To the families carrying this day: thank you.
