The kitchen comes alive with activity as everyone helps with the final preparations. Someone, out of the goodness of their heart, arrives at the church in the wee hours of the morning, to begin cooking the turkeys. The remainder of the congregation arrives, at a more reasonable hour, with food in hand to be shared at the dinner, which takes place following the worship service. |  |
