Thanksgiving Dinner

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Our Mission Committee will be purchasing and assembling Thanksgiving Dinners for those in need. Our goal is for WPC volunteers to deliver 250 or more (full, ready-to-cook dinners) in boxes to Central Ohio families in need on Nov. 22. School counselors prepare the lists of families.  

DONATIONS: 
We are receiving monetary donations after each worship service in Hazelton Hall through Sunday, Nov 19. We estimate that each dinner costs about $65.00.
  • Checks are payable to “Worthington Presbyterian Church.” Please note “Thanksgiving Dinners” on memo line. 
  • You may mail checks to WPC at 773 High Street, Worthington, OH 43085.
  • You can also contribute online.

DATES TO HELP:
  • Saturday, November 19 at 11am: Carry in food to Hazelton Hall; bag fruit and potatoes
  • Monday November 21 at 6pm: Pack food into boxes to help families in need
  • Tuesday, November 22 at 8am: Drivers deliver dinners to area schools
  
PURPOSE:
To share the love of Jesus Christ with area families by providing food for preparing a Thanksgiving dinner.

BACKGROUND:
This project was started by Marylou Posey while teaching at Whetstone High School. Last year we provided the food for a Thanksgiving meal for 250 families. Most dinners were delivered to families with children in Worthington Schools. We also delivered meals to families at Salem Elementary, Hamilton Elementary, and Alvis Moore in Columbus.
