~ The Mayor's Interfaith Council is gearing up for their second annual Interfaith Thanksgiving Service, set to take place on Wednesday, November 19 at First Presbyterian Church in Evansville. The event will run from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. and will bring together speakers and participants from various faith traditions and congregations across the city.

The service aims to promote gratitude, community, and shared responsibility for one another through readings, reflections, and prayers. All members of the community are invited to attend, regardless of their faith background or affiliation.

In addition to the service, the Interfaith Council has partnered with Feed Evansville to coordinate a Little Pantry Food Drive. The goal of this drive is to fill Little Pantries throughout Evansville with non-perishable, shelf-stable items such as canned goods, boxed meals, peanut butter, rice, pasta, and personal care items. These donations will be distributed to Little Pantries across the city in the days following the event.
