Bring a Dish, Share the Love: BUMC Thanks and Giving Potluck on Nov. 23

Ready to kick off Thanksgiving week with good food, easy laughter and a full table? Join us for BUMC’s annual Thanks and Giving Potluck this Sunday.

What to Expect

  • Main course: BUMC provides the turkey.
  • You bring: a favorite side or dessert that serves eight or more.
  • All ages welcome: invite family, friends and neighbors.
  • Festive flair: fun Thanksgiving attire encouraged — think turkey shirts, autumn colors or leaf-themed accessories.

Event Details

  • Date: Sunday, Nov. 23, 2025
  • Location: Bethesda United Methodist Church
  • Cost: Free
  • Volunteer sign-up: Help with set-up and clean-up via SignUpGenius.

Help the Day Run Smoothly

Many hands make light work. If you can arrive a little early or stay a bit late, please add your name to the volunteer list. Your help with tables, trash and light cleanup keeps the celebration warm and welcoming for everyone.

Pro Tips for Your Dish

  • Label common allergens (nuts, dairy, gluten) when possible.
  • Bring a serving utensil for your dish.
  • Pick something that travels well and can sit at room temperature for a short time.

A Table Big Enough for Everyone

This potluck isn’t about perfect recipes. It’s about showing up, sharing what you can and making space for one another. Come hungry, bring a favorite dish and help set a long table where neighbors become friends.
