At a Feed the Need Missions site, you’ll hear a question asked over and over again: “How can we pray for you?” Sometimes the answer is simple. Someone needs a job, a family member is sick, there’s a doctor’s appointment coming up, or money is tight. Other times, the answer isn’t simple at all. A […]
If you visit a Feed the Need Missions site for the first time, it’s easy to think the most important thing happening is the meal. Burgers are on the grill, volunteers are serving, cars are coming through, and families are eating. Come back six months later, though, and you’ll start to see something different. You’ll […]
If you’ve ever volunteered with Feed the Need Missions, you’ve probably experienced the best part of what we do. You arrive, greet familiar faces, help prepare a meal, share conversations around the table, and watch a community come alive. In just a couple of hours, a whole community is fed, relationships are strengthened, and the […]
Some of the richest Bible teaching happening in our communities right now is not happening in a sanctuary. It is happening at folding tables at our Stony Point site, over a shared meal, after burgers come off the grill. Erin Feldges, who helps manage the site, has been leading it. The approach is simple and […]
Kerry-Lynn didn’t know where she belonged anymore.

If you’ve been to one of our Feed the Need Missions sites lately, you’ve probably noticed something—the lines are getting longer. Families who’ve never had to ask for help are showing up for a meal and a listening ear. With the ongoing government shutdown, many neighbors are missing paychecks, and programs like food stamps and […]
(The picture of Ruben facilitating Table Talk shows more than a man leading a discussion—it shows the fruit of years of prayer, the power of consistency, and the goodness of God at work in Stony Point.) When Feed the Need Missions first began exploring how to serve the Stony Point community in Bastrop County, […]
The devastation along the Guadalupe River this weekend is hard to put into words. Entire homes swept away. Families torn apart. Dozens of lives lost—and still, dozens more unaccounted for. The weight of it all was everywhere. In the faces of those searching. In the silence between conversations. In the thick mud left behind by […]
Every Wednesday evening at the Bastrop Farmers Market, something powerful is quietly happening. For the past eight months, we have been setting up tables, grills, and tents — but more importantly, we have been showing up.
