[lead]Here at Vous Church, we believe that generosity is our privilege. That’s why one of our favorite events that we put on as a church is I Love My City.[/lead]Each month, our servant leaders gather together to serve our city in various ways, helping to meet the needs of others around us. We truly believe that if we serve the city, God will change it!This month at I Love My City, we had our very first Thanksgiving food drive as a church, and served Thanksgiving meals to members of our community. While Thanksgiving is an incredible time of thankfulness and blessing, we’re aware that for many, the holiday season can be a reminder of need. We set out to make sure that everyone in our community has a warm meal on the table this Thanksgiving.Over the past few weeks, members of our church have brought grocery bags full of Thanksgiving goodies to donate. We got together for a packing party, stuffed bags full of all the fixin’s, and came together over the weekend to bless others with everything they need for a 5-star Thanksgiving meal.As a church and through partnerships with local businesses in our community, we were able to give away over 400 bags of groceries and over 300 turkeys. Crowds of radiant servant leaders welcomed people and cheered them on as they picked up their meals. People danced, laughed, and encouraged one another, spreading the spirit of what Thanksgiving is truly about, community and thankfulness.We are thankful for Discount Mugs for their support and sponsorship, as well as all of the servant leaders who showed up and brought the greens, beans, potatoes, and tomatoes! Happy Thanksgiving!
