Area residents have until noon on Wednesday to order a Thanksgiving Dinner from St. Barnabas Episcopal Church and Grace’s Kitchen.

Over 500 meals are being prepared for the for the 21st annual Community Thanksgiving Meal, according to Rev. Doug Bleyle.
“We increased purchase orders for potatoes and sweet potatoes, cranberries, things like that,” he told The Journal.
The church has enough volunteers for the Thanksgiving meal preparations, according to Rev. Bleyle.
“At this moment, we've got pretty much everything else that we requested,” he said. But there are “always needs for the financial assistance.”
