Turkeys For Your Thanksgiving Meal

This month, the United Methodist Men (UMM) are kicking off one of our 2011-2012 fundraisers that enable us to do mission work for such worthy causes as upgrades for the Kaufman County Children's Shelter, Healing Hearts, and various projects for our own church.

This year we are going to travel a different path and offer Cajun injected and seasoned deep-fried turkeys (cooked in peanut oil), just in time for your home Thanksgiving feast. 

If you have never tried turkey prepared like this, now is your chance. You will probably never have a more moist and flavorful bird on your table. We will be offering 14-16 pound turkeys for $30 each that we will cook fresh on Saturday, November 19. Our customers will be able to pick up their treats that evening (or home delivery can be arranged if required), complete with instructions on how to store and reheat your bird for your Thanksgiving meal.

How do you get this YUMMY deal? The UMM will have sign-up sheets available in the Sanctuary and in the church office through October so you can reserve your bird and so that we can get an accurate count of turkeys and the supplies, equipment and cookers needed. 

Sign up early, as quantities will be limited due to cooking capacity and time.
