Proverbs 16:3 was one of the verses that came to mind when Pastor Wendell Prim considered canceling his church’s free Thanksgiving dinner for a second year: “Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.” Instead, God’s Covenant Church and cosponsors forged ahead to feed 590 people last Thursday. “God’s Covenant Church may be small in numbers, but when we all come together as a team, everyone achieves more,” Prim said. Except for last year, the dinner has been served annually since 2010.
