The Children's Ministry of New Life, directed by Pastor Thomas and Jamie plus all of the teachers and the children of New Life, collected a complete Thanksgiving Feast for a special family this year.
The children have been taught by their teachers about giving for the entire month of November, and they have been putting together a complete Thanksgiving Dinner under the careful guidance of the 5th and 6th Grade Teachers Scott and Melody.
Jamie completed it with a beautiful basket and a card from all of the children and teaching staff. When it was all put together it was quite a full meal - enough for maybe 2-3 days! When I called the family to let them know, they were so thankful. It's been a rough year - but their faith in God has seen them through. Having a home church when life is tough - is the best support team a family can have!
Well done Pastor Thomas - I am glad you are teaching our children to become givers.
I can imagine the enjoyment of the family as they cooked and prepared their Thanksgiving Dinner this year. Thanksgiving truly has meaning when we give to another.
More tomorrow about Thanksgiving functions!
Our food pantry is always in need of food as we feed families weekly here. Please remember there are people in need every day - not just Thanksgiving. Can you help?
