WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. (WVDN) – The final Lenten season baked or fried tilapia dinner is scheduled for Friday, March 31, from 4-7 p.m. in the White Sulphur Springs Community Center behind the Emanuel United Methodist Church, just south of the Main Street bridge. Dinners are available to eat in or take out.
“We have to humbled by the support we have received this year and are very appreciative of everyone who has come out and enjoyed the dinners and the fellowship,” noted Andrew Wrzosek of Waitesville, grand knight of the Greenbrier Valley Council 8689 Knights of Columbus, which sponsors the dinners.
The dinners consist of tilapia, scalloped potatoes, coleslaw, hard rolls, desserts and drinks. Children 5 and under eat for free.
In addition to the donations being awarded this Friday from the 50/50 drawing, the “Raise the Roof” fund raising committee of St. Charles Borromeo Catholic Church in White Sulphur Springs will have the drawing for the four big baskets of goodies, one of which the winner must be 18 years old to win, at 7 p.m., but entrants do not need to be present to win in any of the drawings.
Funds from the dinners benefit the community, youth, service, church and council projects in eastern Fayette, Greenbrier, Monroe and Pocahontas counties. Already during the Lenten Season, the Knights have supported the Greenbrier Valley Solid Waste Authority with recycling of bottles, cans and cardboard; the Family Refuge Center, with nearly 35 pounds of food and the St. Catherine of Siena Church Altar and Rosary Society.
