HERE are lots more pictures from the Turkey Drop

On Saturday, our Grouping was able to distribute 500 FREE frozen turkeys and side dishes to anyone who happened by Mater Dolorosa Church.
It was a great show of teamwork and generosity with more than
30 volunteers, all coordinated by Martha Birch.
(The community thanks you, Martha!)

Many thanks also to Chicora Volunteer Fire Company for
directing traffic - it was a success because of you.

And to Welter's Meat Shop and Welter's Country Market
for securing 500 turkeys for us in the middle of a pandemic!

Happy Thanksgiving!
