Ecumenical Community Thanksgiving Service

OLD LYME — The annual Community Service of Thanksgiving, organized by the faith communities of Lyme and Old Lyme, will take place at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 22, at Saint Ann’s Episcopal Church.  All are welcome to attend this ecumenical service of prayer and song, which will feature music led by the choirs of First Congregational Church of Old Lyme, Saint Ann’s Episcopal Church, and Christ the King Church. Clergy from the various faith communities will participate, as will lay members and community leaders. A free-will offering will be taken up during the service to benefit the New London Homeless Hospitality Center and the Shoreline Soup Kitchens and Pantries, and donations of nonperishable foods will be collected for the Shoreline Food Pantry, to help our neighbors in need. Everyone, regardless of religious affiliation, is welcome to attend the Ecumenical Thanksgiving Service.
