We’ll serve oven roasted turkey, traditional stuffing, mashed potatoes, green beans, sweet potatoes, cranberry sauce, dinner rolls, pickles, and olives. For beverages, we’ll have ginger ale, cranberry juice, lemonade, and apple cider. For dessert, we’ll have pumpkin pie, apple pie, and coffee and tea.

This event is for those who may be new to the Boston area, or those who want to share a meal with the community, or those who may need a bit of help in providing Thanksgiving for themselves or their family. And for all those in between, all are truly welcome at the United Parish table.

When: Thursday, November 26, 2026 at 1pm (doors open at 12:30pm)

Please join us! It is our pleasure to share this holiday with our neighbors. We are so grateful to be in community with you.

Free and open to all! First come, first served. An RSVP is not required, but is helpful so we can get a headcount. Please CLICK HERE to let us know you’re coming. Walk-ins welcome.
