Food City to sponsor Shepherd’s Inn Feast of Joy dinner

The Shepherd’s Inn will host its 23rd annual Feast of Joy Christmas Dinner on Monday, Dec. 7, at Valley Forge Free Will Baptist Church in Elizabethton, with Food City sponsoring the meal. Tickets are now available. Food City’s culinary team will provide the dinner entree and desserts for the event, which raises funds for The Shepherd’s Inn, a safe house and emergency shelter serving women and children who are victims of domestic violence. “We are thrilled that our culinary friends with Food City will provide the entire entree and desserts,” said Michael Hawkins, board president. “Food City has an amazing culinary team who is accustomed to catering events, and their sponsorship of the Feast of Joy brings a wonderful gift and partnership.” Before dinner, guests will be served wassail and hors d’oeuvres provided by restaurants throughout the Elizabethton community. Local restaurants have contributed appetizers to the event since its beginning.
