The United Karate Federation, in collaboration with Pastor Steve Smith of International Love Ministries of God, joined forces on Thanksgiving Day. They could be seen in the downtown community at 16th and Island Street making friends, feeding, and influencing people.

“I had some of my Karate students come here today so they could volunteer and see what it feels like to help others, and they did an awesome job. Praise God,” Orned Gabriel of UKF shared.

After blessing the big feast and some inspiring words of encouragement by those responsible for the special occurrence, it was time to enjoy the free all-you-can-chew Thanksgiving Day dinner.

“We feed people every Sunday, right here. But today is special because of the holiday,” Pastor Steve Smith shared. 

“I cooked seven turkeys, two roasts, made the peach cobbler, the corn, and more. We did all of this for the people. We just want to do the Lord’s work. We are here every Sunday and we also do baptisms right here. Come by,” Smith said.
