The WELL Church to Host Free Thanksgiving Meal
A home-cooked meal and fellowship awaits anyone who wants it or needs it this Thanksgiving, the non-demoninational Simpsonville church says.
Simpsonville's The WELL Community Church plans to host a communal Thanksgiving dinner from noon until 3 p.m. at the Center for Community Services, 102 Howard Drive.
"The Feast for All," as the celebration is called, will include a traditional Thanksgiving meal of turkey, dressing "and all the fixings," the church said. The church will also have games and activities for children.
The meal is entirely free.
The event is part community fellowship and part outreach to those in need. While the event is free, people are encouraged to bring donations before the end of the day Wednesday to the Center. A hospitality table will be set up at the event to provide basic needs such as food, clothing, blankets, and toiletries for anyone who is in need to take home with them, the church said.
The church said it is looking for donations of nonperishable foods, personal hygiene products, fleece blankets, and clothing such as socks, gloves and mittens, and winter hats.
