3rd Annual Thanksgiving Dinner at St. Kilian Catholic Church

Thursday November 26, 2026

“When a poor person dies of hunger, it has not happened because God did not take care of him or her.  It has happened because neither you nor I wanted to give that person what he or she needed.”

Mother Teresa

Every week St. Kilian’s Parish, through our Food Pantry, helps to feed the less fortunate in our Parish, and our Mission Viejo Community.  This Thanksgiving Day dinner is free for anyone lacking food, or simply those seeking the company of others.  If you are part of this family, we encourage you to plan to have a delicious Thanksgiving Day dinner with us. No Reservation Needed. Serving 11:00 am – 3:00 pm. Turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, stuffing, sweet potatoes, green beans, cranberry sauce, rolls, apple pie and pumpkin pie.

We are seeking Volunteers from our Parish, to help serve 150-200 of our extended family on Thanksgiving Day.  We will need volunteers to help set up, meal preparation, meal service, and those seeking to sit down with our guests, and help them to feel at home here on Thanksgiving Day!

Sign-up Genius system will be available in October to sign up for a Volunteer position.
