IFCA Thanksgiving Dinner

The Clear Lake United Methodist Church and Galilean Lutheran Church co-hosted the IFCA (Interfaith Fellowship for Community Action) Community Thanksgiving meal at the United Methodist Church.
Two hundred fifty-three (253) meals were served from 11:30 to 1:30 on November 28. The meal included turkey, dressing, potatoes with gravy, green beans, corn and a roll. Topping the meal off was a large variety of homemade pies. It doesn’t get any better than that!
It really does take a village to put on an event like this. On Thursday, 63 volunteers from seven churches gave their time to make this a successful event. The meals were available for dine-in, delivery and take out.
Everybody involved felt God’s blessings and love as they served others during the day.
