Looking for some fun Friday evening, November 27, 2015? International Thanksgiving Fellowship Weekend invites the community to join us for a delicious potluck supper and to meet our guests who are visiting Morrison over the weekend. It will be held at 6:30 p.m., in the basement at St. Peter Lutheran Church, 601 N. Jackson Street, in Morrison, IL.
The International Thanksgiving Fellowship Weekend program has been a part of Morrison’s Thanksgiving tradition since the 1960’s. This year, 14 international students from various countries will arrive by a chartered bus from different colleges in Chicago, IL, on Wednesday, November 25. They will stay with local families to experience an American holiday.
Organizers Janet Fisher and Ben and Carol Hollister, along with Church Women United, would love to have you meet these special guests while sharing a community potluck. Entrance will be at the backside of the church where you can take the stairs or elevator to the downstairs community room.
Dinner is followed by a candle lighting ceremony, local entertainment, and some American traditional dances.
Reservations are not needed. Bring a dish to pass, beverages, and table service.
This is a wonderful way to extend the hand of friendship across the globe.
Please call Janet Fisher at 815-772-7668 or Carol Hollister at 815-772-4032 if you have questions.
