(CBN News) Franklin Graham and the Samaritan’s Purse ministry will serve a traditional roast turkey and baked ham Christmas meal on Christmas Eve to the hurting community of Mayfield, Kentucky.
Graham will also share a message of encouragement to those in attendance, and he will be joined by Bluegrass and Country music legend Ricky Skaggs, a native of Cordell, KY, who is returning to his home state to encourage residents and spread some Christmas spirit.
“Everyone is welcome to come. We want the people of this hard-hit region to know that we love them and God loves them,” said Graham, president of Samaritan’s Purse. “So many people are hurting and discouraged. They need hope, and Christmas is about the hope that is offered to all of us through the birth of God’s Son Jesus Christ.”
