On Sunday, November 18, many volunteers from our church put hosted Community Dinner at the Center Congregational Church in Torrington. Over 80 people were served, and there were enough leftovers to serve another 80. Our Christian Action committee organized the event, the Lakeville Fire Company prepared the delicious food, and many volunteers served and worked tirelessly to make the event such a success.
