Lazarus House invites the community to join its staff, guests and many supporters at its annual Thanksgiving Feast. The event will run from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, Nov. 27, at the Tri-Cities Salvation Army, 1710 S. 7th Ave., St. Charles. Dining will begin at noon.
The feast has become a tradition within the community. It is a chance to sit alongside our guests to share fellowship and a meal. The feast was established for folks who are homeless or alone for Thanksgiving as well as those who simply want to add more meaning to their holiday.
