In the South Carolina Lowcountry, Island churches help hungry

Thanksgiving came early this year for residents of Johns and Wadmalaw islands.

Nineteen churches pulled together Saturday to host “Feeding the Multitude,” which included a free Thanksgiving meal, entertainment and Christian fellowship.

Although Sunday mornings have been called one of the most segregated times in America, black, white and Hispanic volunteers contributed food, time and talent to serve their neighbors Saturday afternoon.

The event was held at St. John’s Episcopal Church on Johns Island, and organizers hope it will become an annual event.

Hooray for Saint John’s! Read it all.
