This year marks the 27th year of our annual Interfaith Thanksgiving Celebration!
 

The Kaufman Interfaith Institute, along with the interfaith community of Grand Rapids, welcomes you to enjoy an evening of celebration for the religious diversity of our community.

The Interfaith Thanksgiving celebration features musical pieces, reflections, and presentations from various religious and secular traditions in our community. During the event, we will hear from members of our community, representing an array of religious, spiritual, and secular worldview identities, as they discuss the enduring need for gratitude for our shared home during this and all seasons.

A free-will offering will be collected to support the new Community and Service Center

The Community and Service Center provides both emergency services (a warming and cooling center, and access to food) and empowerment services (resource navigation support and case management). It offers one space where people experiencing homelessness can get help with housing, employment, income support, health care, mental health care, transportation, case management, medical and food benefits activation, legal services, and more.

The Community and Service Center is made possible by a collaboration between Mel Trotter Ministries, Dégagé Ministries, Catholic Charities, and seven downtown churches.

Light refreshments will follow the gathering.
