New Shiloh MB Church will host 27th annual Thanksgiving dinner
In addition to the traditional Thanksgiving feast, State Rep. Vernon G. Smith (D-Gary) said the 27th Annual Harvest Feast, on Friday, Nov. 16, will feature several groups and individuals who will offer inspiration in song, word and dance.
“We have a fantastic lineup this year for the religious service,” said Dr. Smith. “We will feature Cece& Co., Sistahs N Christ, which is a praise dancers group, the Johnson Family, David Gullet, a gospel vocalist, and New Life Youth Choir. These individuals and groups will be a true blessing for all who hear them. I invite senior citizens, organizations and all Gary residents to attend this year’s Harvest Feast on Friday, Nov. 16. The food will be delicious, the music heavenly and the fellowship warm and inviting.”
The Harvest Feast religious service will begin at 7 p.m. at New Shiloh Missionary Baptist Church, 1727 West 15th Avenue., in Gary. A full, traditional Thanksgiving meal follows. It features turkey, dressing, beef roast, macaroni and cheese, green beans, greens, mashed potatoes, and dessert. The event is free and the public is welcome.
Dr. Smith, an Indiana University Northwest professor, organizes and presents the event every year as a memorial to his mother, the Rev. Julia E. Smith, former pastor of Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church, and his aunt, Magnolia Allen.
