Again this year, the Bradford Area Ministerium will sponsor a Community Thanksgiving Service. The service will be held at 7 p.m. Tuesday at Hill Memorial United Methodist Church.

Since its inception, the Thanksgiving holiday was set apart as a time for people of faith to give thanks to the Creator for the blessing of life and liberty that people enjoy in the United States. This service invites Christians from all congregations and denominations to come together for a service of prayer, scripture reading and song.

Pastors from several different area churches are taking part in the service, and the Rev. Ken Duffee of Evans Memorial Church, will be the preacher this year.

Everyone is invited to take part in this worship service and to stay for a time of fellowship following the service. An offering will be taken to benefit the Salvation Army food pantry or gifts of canned food items may also be given.
