Not everyone can go home for Christmas, and the Holidays can be pretty
lonely with no friends and family around. So if you looking for something
different to do at Christmas this year, check out St. Thomas' annual
Christmas Dinner. It is a free and festive traditional turkey dinner with
dressing, veggies, and dessert held on Christmas Day. Join us for
good
food,
good music, fun and new friends. The dinner will be held in Canon Wood
Hall
at St. Thomas' Anglican Church, 8 Military Road in St. John's. You can
reserve a seat by calling 576-6632 or emailing
