田纳西州诺克斯维尔格雷斯浸信会第八届感恩节供餐扩至三地：预计 1 万至 1.5 万人用餐，另抽奖发放 500 美元食物与燃油券
田纳西州诺克斯维尔的格雷斯浸信会今年举办第八届 Feeding the 5,000 感恩节供餐活动，场地由一处扩大到三处。
主任牧师鲍比·刘易斯表示，今年最大的调整就是地点数量，三场活动同时在该教会位于诺克斯维尔的卡恩斯地点、橡树岭校区与市中心欧文街的男孩女孩俱乐部举行。
刘易斯说，这项活动始于 2019 年秋季，筹备工作耗时一年，活动前几个月与 Food City 合作备货，已储备并将打包的食物预计可供 1 万至 1.5 万人用餐。
教会还将随机抽奖，向有需要的家庭发放 500 美元食物与燃油券。
活动结束后剩余的食物将送往当地食物储藏室。
Grace Baptist Church in Knoxville Expands Its Eighth Annual Feeding the 5,000 Thanksgiving Event to Three Locations for an Expected 10,000 to 15,000 People
Grace Baptist Church in Knoxville, Tennessee, is holding its eighth annual Feeding the 5,000 Thanksgiving meal event at three locations this year.
Senior Pastor Bobby Lewis said the biggest major adjustment is instead of one location, the church is doing three locations, with the events happening at the same time at the church Carnes location in Knoxville, at its Oak Ridge campus and at the Boys and Girls Clubs of Irving Street downtown.
Lewis said the event began in the fall of 2019, planning takes a year, with work alongside Food City in the months before the event, and 10,000 to 15,000 people could eat from the food that has been stockpiled and will be packed.
The church also will hold random drawings for 500 dollar food and fuel vouchers for needy families.
Any food left over after the event will go to local food pantries.
