Young people spend the evening cooking turkey dinners for shut-ins and low income families. On Thanksgiving, they deliver dishes with meat, vegetables and a side of caring to their neighbors. Jim Karita is one of the grateful recipients: âI wouldnât have any Thanksgiving if it werenât for these fellas with the church. We just appreciate what theyâre doing for us.â
