The spirit of giving thanks was on full display last Wednesday at Iola’s Wesley United Methodist Church.
Church members handed out 447 Thanksgiving meals as part of a drive-up meal distribution effort.
The event astounded the volunteers who helped prepare and serve the food.
Organizers originally had planned to do 300, but with extra food — and extra demand — they happily served up the extra meals.
Humboldt’s St. Peter’s Lutheran Church has its drive-thru Thanksgiving meals set for Thursday. Reservations were required by Sunday to be a part of the Humboldt food giveaway.
