We are giving away Thanksgiving baskets Monday, Nov. 22, 2021 from 2-5pm at the north entrance to the church. We’re welcoming the parents from Olympic View Elementary School who signed up for Thanksgiving dinners with all the trimmings: yams, potatoes, carrots, and celery, rolls, butter, green beans, cranberry sauce, corn, stuffing, gravy, a whole bird,  and pie with whipped topping for desert. We hope you will be able to enjoy this day in November as a time to appreciate each other and everything we’ve been through this year. We are able to serve around 70 families and 300 people of all ages, with about half of the food going to a domestic violence shelter, and the rest feeding families from the Olympic View community.
