Purposefully filling the needs of the community and bringing the message of salvation to those in need. More Than A Meal is a non-profit mobile ministry to the poor and broken in downtown Colorado Springs. Every Saturday we meet at 502 N. Walnut St. 80905 to clothe and feed the homeless. Through His ministry, God has successfully brought together the efforts of numerous parts of His Body throughout the city from church denominations and backgrounds of all sorts, who each come together in love and the unity of the Spirit to feed and provide for the physical needs of the people in our city as well as to meet their spiritual and emotional needs through relationship, prayer, worship, and the sharing of God’s word. Our purpose is to reveal Father God to them right where they are at in life and allow for His Spirit to work through us and more often than not, in spite of us in order to lead them into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
