Join neighbors from across Portage for the annual Portage Community Thanksgiving Worship Service on Sunday, November 22, at 5:00 PM at Portage United Church of Christ on Milham Avenue.
This interdenominational celebration is an opportunity to pause, reflect, and give thanks for the blessings that sustain us—our community, our faith, the earth, and the resilient spirit that carries us forward. The service will include music, readings, and reflections shared by local clergy. A community offering will also be collected to support a local service organization.
Following the service, everyone is invited to stay for the traditional Pie Potluck Supper, featuring an assortment of sweet and savory pies. There is always plenty to share!
The service is hosted by We Gather, a coalition of six Portage congregations: Chapel Hill Church, Portage United Church of Christ, Prince of Peace Lutheran Church, St. Barnabas Episcopal Church, Unitarian Universalist Community Church of Southwest Michigan, and Westminster Presbyterian Church. Together, these congregations work to build bridges of justice, love, and shared purpose in our community.
Come as you are, bring your gratitude, and enjoy an evening of music, fellowship, and connection with neighbors.
