Ray Broshears who continues on with them, aided by Tenderloin Tessie (Perry Spink) This year, the chief was Jack, the manager of the Pleasure Palace & Discount Book Stores. He was superb, the best cook ever, to date. Jack was aided by one of his employees Show times and another friend of the Reverend's, Big Jim. The fabulous Allan Lloyd helped bring in the supplies and serve as well, as did Brian Fuller. Serving alongside Tessie was the pre sident of the Minutemen Democratic Club, Elmer Wilhelm, and the fantastic Ginger. Surprising all with a vist and joining the elderly to sample the food, was famed gay criminal Mason Street a lawyer, B.J. Beckwith and gay realtor, Andrew Betancourt. Never in the 9 years has a Thanksgiving Dinner gone as smoothly as this one, which served well over 70 persons at the Christ Chapel's dining room, in the 4th floor of 26 Seventh Street. A huge cake from Tenderloin Tessie and Rev. Ray was served afterwards to all the elderly guests. * Livegl^w g The Church thanks so very much all those who worked to make the Dinner the succes^.it was, and in addition those who helped in other ways such as donating funds, like the people who attended the function at the Sound of Music with Tessie. and of course Tessie; Ronetta Fats; Paul Brotherton of the »P.S. for his assistance; Don Cavallo of the Fick ♦ L o v e ^ c t s le Fox, Floyd Jackson, the fabulous Chef of all time, who is hospitalized for now, at Kaiser Hospital (and chief at the Fickle Fox); Pat TownsoA the Snow Princess; CHRISTMAS DINNER SET.....the 9th Annual Old Folks Chrbtmas Dinner is set for the 22nd of December, and Jack will be the Chef at this one also.

Truly, those persons who worked so hard to make the Thanksgiving feast a success, deserves big round of applause (which the elderly did) and all those who continbuted from little to big, deserve the choicest blessing that God can send to them. God is responsible for all of us, and we should try and make every day a day of Thanksgiving and working always to make the world a better place than we found it. God's Love is greater than anything!
