Happy Thanksgiving!

This past Monday was our annual Thanksgiving feast at Shepherds of Good Hope.  We had 480 people stop by to enjoy a meal with us!

We also welcomed Yasir Naqvi, MPP from Ottawa Centre as he helped serve the meal to our clients. Thanksgiving lunch time at Shepherds of Good Hope started at 11 :00 am and ran to 1 pm – an hour longer than would normally take place.  This special meal consisted of turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, turnips, gravy, cranberry sauce, juice, coffee, apple and pumpkin pie.

It was a wonderful feast and we were pleased to have Mr. Naqvi come down, meet our clients, volunteers and staff and help out on a busy Thanksgiving Monday.

 

Thanksgiving day is a special time for Shepherds of Good Hope, clients, staff and volunteers.  On this occasion, the community comes together in preparation and enjoyment of a wonderful home cooked meal.
