Last year I didn’t have the energy to drive to Orlando so I stayed home and spent the day with Pastor Guy at Jensen Beach Christian Church and helped to serve and eat Thanksgiving Dinner.

I did the same thing the first year I lived here serving at another church. It was a great experience.

Here is a list of wonderful places serving up Thanksgiving on Thanksgiving day. You can go and eat or help or both.
