Make Your Plans for the Holiday Season

We will not have a Thanksgiving Day service and breakfast this year at Sardis. We

encourage you instead to attend the Annual Interfaith Thanksgiving Service on Tuesday,

November 26 at 7:00 pm, hosted by Covenant Presbyterian Church. The speaker this

year is Dr. Ron Carter, President, Johnson C. Smith University, with music provided by

the Mecklenburg Ministries Interfaith Adult Choir and Children’s Choir. You are invited

to bring canned goods to the Thanksgiving service to benefit Loaves and Fishes.
