Loaves & Fishes Outreach Ministry

Our Meal Ministry provides a free daily meal to those in need; the food is given with a servant’s heart, humbly in love by living out the word of God to glorify Him through serving one another. The ministry has been serving the community of Elizabethton and Carter County since January of 2018 and serves an average of 2,000 meals a month and gives out twice a month every day an average of 300 boxes of food.

The Meal Ministry serves families and individuals of the community by providing ready-to-eat meals; there is no registration or signup. It's designed to help ease daily burdens, this ministry is carried out by a network of volunteers, other churches, and organizations who serve one another by meeting the practical needs of food preparation.
