Celebrate an early Christmas Dinner at the Dinner Kitchen on Dec. 19. The menu will feature traditional baked ham and all of the trimmings. As always, there will be something for everyone, including vegetarian dishes and fun stuff for the kids, too.

Dinner Kitchens are community event held monthly from 5 to 6:30 p.m. at Emmanuel Church. These special events are a gift especially for food bank participants, island seniors and anyone in need of a hot meal. There is no charge. There will be food, music and fun.
