RECREATION :: THANKSGIVING PROJECT
A collaboration of Oakland Presbyterian Churches: Tuesday, November 22nd,
Recreation is back for a day!
Recreation is back for a day!
Our fun filled, meaningful week during the summer, will reappear for a day over the Thanksgiving holiday. The morning will begin with story and song, as the kids learn together about the important of sharing what we have, feeding those who need it, and be thankful for what we have. Jesus’ mandate to feed the hungry will frame the day. Then, the kids will rotate through art and cooking classes, where they will prepare a thanksgiving dinner for the neighborhood. Our art will decorate the event. Fun will fill the day, as the kids play games, learn a lot, and serve their community. As a grand finale celebration of their efforts, families, friends and the entire neighborhood will be invited to a free community Thanksgiving dinner
at 6 pm at Fruitvale Presbyterian Church.
Kids can change the world. They have enough love and energy to make a difference to people who need those very things, people who are hungry. We will gather the energy of the kids of Oakland to feed people.
