We also thank the wonderful support we receive from our volunteer team, along with support from other local churches and organizations who provide food and monetary donations.

Woman's Missionary Union (WMU)...
- Kilmarnock Baptist Church has a very active WMU which is open to all women in the church. We have six areas of mission focus:
* learn about missions
* support missions
* develop spiritually toward a missional lifestyle
* engage in mission action and witnessing
* participate in the work of the church and the denomination
- Our outreach is wide and varied from a birthday party for nursing home residents, dinner for the doctors at the Free Health Clinic, cookies for teacher appreciation, providing Christmas for the orphans in a home in Kenya, Africa, supporting an orphanage in Virginia, supporting our missionary in Panama, supporting the Christian ministry education program in Myanmar, collecting Bibles for the prison chaplain, raising money for disaster relief, and supporting our church food pantry. These are just a few of the projects that we have worked on over the years.
- We provide educational materials to our members such as the Mission Mosaic. We have programs about missionaries of the past and those of the present, learning about their work and how they responded to God's Call. We keep the congregation informed of on-going mission opportunities , and welcome their support and input.
- We hope to inspire church members to want to know more about on-going mission projects, and to be challenged to greater awareness of the needs which surround all of us. We hope to instill a desire to grow in faith, and practice what it means to live a missional lifestyle on a daily basis.
- The WMU meets at 10:30 a.m. on the 2nd Tuesday of each month.
