A black and white photograph of a building with "BIBLE WAY MISSION" painted in large letters on its facade. Below the text, a sign reads "CARS NOT AUTHORIZED TO PARK HERE WILL BE TOWED AWAY." The building has multiple doors and windows, some with decorative patterns, and there are checkered patterns above some windows. The ground in front of the building is wet, reflecting parts of the building.
