Our food drive was successful and we were able to bring approximately fifty pounds of food to the First United Bank branch in Madill. This supported wider food drive efforts and fed up to forty people.
Thanksgiving 2022 Message
Thanksgiving is a holiday tradition that first started in 1619 in Virginia. Almost forty settlers celebrated as prescribed by organizing documents from the London Company.
That charter stated, “that the day of our ships arrival at the place assigned for plantation in the land of Virginia shall be yearly and perpetually kept holy as a day of thanksgiving to Almighty God.”
Most Americans grow up hearing the pilgrim tale of Massachusetts.
That thanksgiving was prompted by a good harvest in 1621. The day celebrated by the Pilgrims and the local Native American Tribe, the Wampanoag. Along with the last surviving Patuxet, they brought their previous celebrations to their new homes in New England.
Marshall County EMS hopes you will remember the blessings in your own life.
