JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (KMIZ)
if you don't have the money or just want to enjoy a hot meal this upcoming thanksgiving, there are few places you may want to visit. Immaculate Conception in Jefferson City will be providing Thanksgiving meals and a place to eat to those who don't have a place to go on Thanksgiving.
Immaculate Conception Thanksgiving meal tradition was started by Michael Schnieders 13 years ago. He told ABC 17 that he was inspired to start tradition at his church after he and his family helped a Salvation Army many years ago.
"We just took a look around at the community that immaculate conceptions reside in and we thought, you know i think there is the need right here in our local community. So we decided to go ahead and start a meal of our own" said Schnieders.
Immaculate Conception will be serving meals at their school and giving people the choice of dining in, carrying out or delivery. Immaculate Conception ask that people call their church at 573-635-6143.
They ask that families who need ten or more meals, to pick up their food.
Immaculate Conception will also have someone serve the same Thanksgiving meal, during the same time but to residents who live in Dulle and Hamilton Tower Apartments in Jefferson City. That meal will take place in the community room.
Immaculate Conceptions said parish families will be serving and cooking the food. Meals will be not be limited to anyone attending.
Powerhouse Community Development in Columbia will also give away turkey boxes Saturday on the east side of Parkade plaza. The box will include all the items needed to make a thanksgiving dinner.
You can enjoy a hot thanksgiving meal with PCD on thanksgiving day at the senior activity center on the Business Loop. PCD CEO Charles Stephenson was inspired to carry the events out by former councilwoman Almeta Crayton.
"We share a passion to make sure that people eat and that people who have needs are met in this community" said Stephenson.
The Salvation Army Center of Hope will hold two dinners at their shelter on Jefferson Street in Jefferson City. They will offer thanksgiving meal delivery due to extra help from volunteers this year. if you want a meal delivered from the Salvation Army call 573-635-1975.
