Monday Meals at Word of Life Ministries
January 12, 2026 Monday Meals was a huge blessing!
After making 300 enchiladas, we completely ran out by the end of the event. When all the tallies were in, we served 200 meals!
Even more meaningful than the numbers were the conversations, fellowship, and friendships being built and nurtured.
With this event, Feed My Sheep Squared has now served over 9,000 free meals to our community.
God is great!!!!

Monday Meals at Word of Life Ministries
December 29, 2025 On a cold evening, Feed My Sheep Squared served up warm food and warm hearts! Guests enjoyed grilled Simmons chicken breast, fancy green beans, cheesy corn, a roll with butter, and a Little Debbie’s dessert — a comforting meal on a chilly night.
Even more special were our warm-hearted volunteers, serving with big smiles and even bigger hearts, making everyone feel welcomed and cared for.
A heartfelt thank you to Simmons Foods, Little Debbie’s, and Cameron & Anna Ford for sponsoring this meal and helping us bring warmth, nourishment, and love to our community.

December 15, 2025 What an incredible Monday Meals night at Feed My Sheep Squared!
We were blessed to serve 165 hot meals and share an amazing evening with the Smith Drug volunteer team—what a joy to serve side by side!
Families also went home with bags of frozen chicken, and we were overwhelmed by the hugs, smiles, and gratitude from those we had the honor to serve.
This is what community looks like—love in action.
Join us for our next Monday Meals on December 29, 2025!
Come hungry. Come be served. Or come volunteer and serve with us — we’d love to have you!
