First Christian Congregational Church’s 15th Annual Veterans Meat Pie Supper

Posted

First Christian Congregational Church is once again saluting veterans with our 15th Annual Veterans Meat Pie Supper being held on Friday, November 4th from 4 – 7:00 pm. First Christian Congregational Church, located at 1113 GAR Highway, Swansea, MA is in its 15th year of providing this “Donation Only” supper consisting of a ¼ slice of meat pie, whipped potatoes, veggies, gravy, rolls and dessert. Veteran’s Day is a holiday intended to thank, honor and celebrate all those who served in the military, in war time, as well as in peace time. Acknowledging veterans demonstrates our gratitude for all they do to preserve our freedoms.

ALL donations received are converted into food and service gift cards which Kevin Serpa, Swansea Veteran’s Service Officer, distributes throughout the year to Swansea veterans and their families who are truly in need. Due to the Covid pandemic last year we were not able to host an inhouse dinner, but thankfully we were able to present the Swansea Veterans Agent with gift cards and services totaling $11,600.00. The people in our community have always been very generous in support of our veterans. If you are able to “help us help others” at this time, we gratefully will receive your donation which should be forwarded to First Christian Congregational Church, 1113 GAR Highway, Swansea, MA 02777 with “Veterans” in the memo line.

Thank you in advance for your support and kindness in this ministry to our veterans. We hope to see you on Friday, November 4th from 4 to 7:00 pm for a sit-down meal.
