A total of 22 faith and service organizations from north metro Atlanta will be represented on Thursday, Nov. 17, at the 18th annual Ecumenical Thanksgiving Service.
The service has been held virtually the last two years but is returning in-person at East Cobb’s Temple Kol Emeth (1415 Old Canton Road), starting at 7 p.m.
The theme this year is “Finding Common Ground.” The event includes music, reflection and “a healthy dose of humor” from more than a dozen different religious beliefs “to recognize what they have in common and celebrate our uniqueness.”
Among the East Cobb faith communities participating will be the Catholic Church of St. Ann, Chestnut Ridge Christian Church, Congregation Etz Chaim, East Cobb Islamic Center, Emerson Unitarian Universalist Congregation, St. Catherine’s Episcopal Church Transfiguration Catholic Church and Unity North Atlanta Church.
A collection will be taken to benefit the Give-A-Gobble Campaign and desserts will be served after the service.
Seating is limited and begins at 6:30 p.m.
The service also is being live-streamed at this link.
