Monday Meals at Word of Life Ministries
May 4, 2026 What a great night at Feed My Sheep Squared’s May 4 Monday Meal!
We were blessed with incredible volunteers who served with joy & shared the love of Jesus in every smile. Our board members worked hard behind the scenes to make sure everything ran smoothly — and it showed!
And those chicken loaded nachos... A huge hit! So many compliments & happy faces.
One of the best parts? Spending time with the people we serve — friends who have become like family. That’s what this ministry is all about.
We’re taking one day off, then we’re back at it at our new location:
