Morning Star Baptist Church Turkey Giveaway
Morning Star Baptist Church put the giving in Thanksgiving by passing out over 100 free turkeys and canned goods for tomorrow’s big feast.
Donations started piling in weeks ago in preparation for the holiday season. Church members brought in cans of corn, potatoes, and everything else a family might like to see on their plate for Thanksgiving dinner.
Morning Star gives food out to the needy every week but with tomorrow being Thanksgiving, they decided to do something a little extra for the community. Pastor J.L. Franklin said, “It tells you the love Morning Star has for meeting needs. This church has been enriched doing that kind of ministry in the past. We’ve gotten great responses. No surprise what Morning Star does but in this regard, you see all those turkeys come in and you thank God for the members who have the heart for people. It’s so exciting to see them bring those turkeys in.”
Those who were interested in receiving a free turkey were encouraged to attend the church’s noon Thanksgiving service to better understand the meaning behind the donations.
