Mrs. Alton Olsen coordinated the baking of nearly 100 miniature loaves of bread for the special Thanksgiving Service at Bethlehem Lutheran Church in November 1975. The loaves of bread are symbolic of the Thanksgiving message, “Bread for the World.” At the service each family member received a loaf of bread when their gifts of thanksgiving were brought to the altar. A brass ensemble under the direction of Alan Anderson also participated in the service, adding a festive note to the celebration.
