Monday Meals at Word of Life Ministries
February 9, 2026 Our volunteer roster was completely full, and every meal was served with the love of Jesus. The room was filled with hugs, smiles, laughter, and genuine community.
The role of the FMS² Board is to provide guidance and governance, but this Board also rolls up their sleeves—cooking, serving, and loving people right alongside our volunteers.
A special thank you to Ground Zero Construction for sponsoring this event and for being represented by Jackson Kelly, who faithfully served as a volunteer alongside our team.
There’s no doubt about it — God was in the house last night!
Thank you to every volunteer and guest who made the evening so special. This is what feeding God’s sheep looks like.

Monday Meals at Word of Life Ministries
February 2, 2026 Feed My Sheep Squared served up chicken pot pie, salad, and dessert at our February 2 make-up dinner. Thanks to our amazing volunteers, 147 meals were served — each one shared with the love of Jesus.
It was such a blessing to see everyone again after missing a week due to weather. We’re thankful for this community!
We’ll be back this Monday, February 9, 2026.
Come for more than a free meal—come for fellowship, friendships, community, and fun.
Bring a friend!

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!!!!
