Likewise Ministries: Hope and Meals

News & Updates

Likewise Ministries is committed to helping ease food insecurity in our community while striving to share the love of Jesus with everyone we meet. From August 2021 to today, we have provided over 15,000 hot meals to those in need. Through our "Plates & Playbooks" program, we have fed and had the opportunity to minister weekly to 18 different school teams during the duration of their season over the last several years. In August of this year, we fed 685 athletes a total of 2,430 meals!  Praise be to God!! We have also given out over 325 canned meal bags to the community, provided several hot meals for other area non-profit organizations, hosted an ESL class (English as a Second Language) for an annual Christmas gathering and provided over 65 gift baskets for the ladies at the Douglas County Homeless Shelter.  In addition, we have handed out nearly 300 Bibles to people in our community and have been honored to provide over 500 meals to individuals living in encampments and extended-stay facilities throughout the area.  In  August of 2025, we launched our "Workday Wednesdays" program which hosts students from a local high school's Program for Exceptional Children for a weekly CBI trip (Community-Based Learning) as they work to obtain life skills and employability skills and we are ecstatic to welcome them back this year!  We couldn't do any of this without our donors and community partners and we are incredibly thankful!!! Stay tuned for what God has in store for us next!

Together Tuesdays is a weekly community dinner created for Douglas County School System students and their families. Held every Tuesday evening at Christ Cutz BBQ in Douglasville, this program offers more than just a hot meal—it’s a place for fellowship, connection, and care. Families are welcome to dine, laugh, and be encouraged. Transportation is available for those in need, thanks to our local church partners. Join us at the table—because we’re better together.(This program is currently under construction.)
