On behalf of the St. Vincent de Paul Food Pantry of Lincoln and Weston, we would like to thank all who participated in our Turkey Tin project last week. Together we distributed 120 food baskets filled with all the fixings for a thanksgiving meal, including a grocery store gift card for a turkey.
The only thing more heartwarming than seeing those bountiful baskets lined up was witnessing the varied groups, parishes, clubs, troops, friends, and families who came together to pass the blessings on to our neighbors in need. We are very fortunate to be part of such a generous and thoughtful community.
May you all have a peace-filled and happy Thanksgiving.
