ing in large oven The dinner was served at the Sterling ele mentary school It makes you feel pretty darn nice Mrs Walsh said They must have felt like this when the Pilgrims did it At the Colonial Church in Edina Minneapolis suburb Thanksgiving service followed the form used by the Pilgrims in Plymouth more than 300 years ago There were men in Pilgrim costumes drummers summoning people to worship and kernels of corn for people to take home For some today was not day to celebrate Several US Indian groups called for fasting instead of feasting There isnt much we can be thankful for said
