In an early celebration of thanks last week, several Latham Centers staff members attended Brewster Baptist Church’s 16th Annual Thanksgiving Luncheon. The celebration hosted by the church is intended to thank the many Brewster business owners and managers, artists, and others for their support of local causes and charities all year long. The guest invitation noted, “Your generosity is greatly appreciated, and will be recognized at a pre-Thanksgiving Luncheon in your honor.” The delicious luncheon served by volunteers included roast turkey, green beans, whipped potatoes, stuffing, and pie. Latham Centers is grateful to Brewster Baptist Church for including us in the joyful celebration of community support. The prayer offered before the meal by Pastor Doug Scalise appears below:
“Gracious God, this fall throughout our nation we’ve witnessed the damage and loss of life caused by hurricanes, storms, fires, and human violence. We pray for those who are suffering and grieving. We’re humbly grateful that we’re blessed to live on Cape Cod and to be able to support and care for one another. Continue to give us compassionate and generous hearts that are committed to the common good. We thank you for the abundant blessings in our lives. We thank you for heat, for the food we’re about to enjoy, and for our time together. Amen.”
From all of us at Latham Centers, Happy Thanksgiving!
