MADISON – Seven years ago, Inside-Out Ministries introduced a tradition for the people of Madison. That traditional Thanksgiving meal will be served again for anyone in the community on Nov. 23.
Inside-Out will host the seventh annual Madison Community Thanksgiving Dinner in the cafeteria at Bob Jones High School. The meal is free.
“This dinner is provided to offer a family meal for anyone in our community who is without family for Thanksgiving or maybe isn’t able to prepare a meal due to lack of resources,” Inside-Out Director of Operations Deborah Ward said.
Guests can choose among four different seatings. The first dinner hour will start at 4 p.m. Then, other seatings will be offered at 5, 6 and 7 p.m.
To make meal reservations, individuals can call 256-325-5193 through Nov. 21. Be prepared to state the number of adults and number of children who will attend the meal and the hour at which you want to eat.
In addition, transportation to the dinner is available by request for City of Madison residents by calling 256-325-5193 by Nov. 21.
“Come celebrate Thanksgiving with us,” Ward said.
Inside-Out, a 501(c) 3 charity, unites churches, individuals and the community. The all-volunteer organization doesn’t pay salaries and has low overhead.
Founders Larry and Deborah Ward accept applications from residents who have needs for clothing, utility payments, appliances, furniture and housing. “We were drawn to share resources God has put at our disposal and to seek out others who had a heart for helping,” she said.
