If you don’t have other plans for Thanksgiving dinner, why not gather with your friends and neighbors for a free Thanksgiving dinner? No cooking, no cleanup, no fuss. Just relax and enjoy a great turkey dinner with your friends and neighbors. All are welcome!
The community dinner is hosted by the Old Mission Peninsula United Methodist Church (OMPUMC) and includes a traditional turkey dinner with all the fixins’. It’s a free event, but to help the church crew plan better, please RSVP with the number of people who will be attending at (231) 223-4393.

Melody Olin, the pastor at OMPUMC, says she and her husband Denny love organizing the meal. “This is a great way to serve our community by offering a meal for those who are alone, those who don’t have the funds for a dinner, and for those who just want to come and enjoy food and fellowship with others.”
The dinner will take place on Thanksgiving – Thursday, Nov. 22, from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m. at the church, 16426 Center Road on the Old Mission Peninsula.
If you’d like to help support the dinner, or help out in the kitchen or dining area, call Denny at (231) 409-6241.
A NOTE FROM JANE: I started Old Mission Gazette in 2015 because I felt a calling to provide the Old Mission Peninsula community with local news. After decades of writing for newspapers like the New York Times and Los Angeles Times, and magazines like Family Circle and Ladies' Home Journal, I really just wanted to write about my own community where I grew up on a cherry farm and raised my own family. So of course, I started my own newspaper. Because the Gazette is mainly reader-supported, I hope you'll consider tossing a few bucks my way if I mention your event, your business, your organization or your news item, or if you simply love reading about what's happening on the Old Mission Peninsula.
