The Our Father’s House held our annual Thanksgiving Program on the morning of Wed. Nov.19.\u00a0 The sanctuary was packed with proud parents and grandparents watching their children do… well…what kids do best: being kids!\u00a0 After \"OFH<\/a>a lot of rehearsal, the classes of our preschool pulled off a delightful selection of short songs (complete with motions, laughter, and even a few moments where the “performers” yelled out to get their parents’ attention).<\/p>\n

About 40 youngsters filled our chancel area while about 200 adults filled the sanctuary.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

After the program, the elderberries (our church’s “senior”\u00a0 group) threw a big celebration with a Thanksgiving Feast.\u00a0 \"turkey-145381_640\"<\/a>The serving table was full of turkey, mashed potatoes, string beans, salads, corn, stuffing… anything that you could imagine being on your best Thanksgiving Dinner table.\u00a0 The church provided the basics (including 4 tukeys!), while everyone else brought a covered dish.\u00a0 And- of course- the desert table was filled with all kinds of pies, cakes, brownies, and cookies.<\/p>\n

Nobody left without a full belly (and memories of the wonder of our children).<\/p>\n

Here’s a taste- or a glimpse- of what happened….<\/p>\n\n\t\t
