Feeding 5000’s Mission and Purpose

Published 1:30 am Thursday, March 19, 2026

Dear Community,

Feeding 5000 thanks this community for their continued support. We couldn’t do what we do without you.

Our mission and purpose is to provide a place where people can meet with each other, fellowship together, and have good food in a comfortable, welcoming environment. We are striving to get back to these simple goals. Covid 19 saw us change what we were doing.

We provided only to-go meals and lost a lot of our purpose during that time. We want to get back to our original mission.

We’d like to remind the community that to-go meals are only for those who are homebound, shut-in, or in an emergency situation, and who have someone that can pick up their meals.

We must decline the occasional situation where a person just wants a to-go lunch for themselves or a friend. We know the food is good but we just simply do not have the funds to provide more to-go lunches than the lunches we serve in the dining room. The people coming in and eating, sharing a table with others, is our priority.

Thank-you,

Feeding 5000 Volunteers and Staff
