A Special Kind of Soul Food

After Highlands’ Christmas Parade on December 6, enjoy the Church of the Incarnation’s $15 pulled‑pork box lunch, with proceeds benefiting local charities.

Written by: Donna Rhodes

Season’s greetings, all you hungry mountain parade watchers! Get ready for the Barbecue Lunch, under the direction of Church of the Incarnation’s parishioners.

It’s the best darn pork-in-a-box this side of anywhere. It’s not just a meal, it’s a parade ritual that fills rumbling tummies and charities in need.

The Barbecue Lunch is the church’s pulled pork, coleslaw, chips, cookie, and soda box-feast. These barbecue power meals cost a mere $15. Those five- and ten-dollar bills add up in a hurry. The total proceeds provide a special kind of soul food for many. Feel free to give more if you can.

All Proceeds go to the Highlands Community Child Development Center and the International Friendship Center.

The entire cause is sponsored by Bryson Grading and Paving,

Berkshire Hathaway Meadows Mountain Realty, Highlands Dermatology, Paul S. Cabiran M.D., Carl Romberg, Broker Christie’s Highlands Cashiers, Cathy and Mike Crosby, Diane and Ray McPhail, Tom and Ruth Claiborne, and Highlands Chamber of Commerce.

Advanced lunch tickets are on sale at the church. If not sold out, and you need a ticket, you can buy one at the parade on December 6. Box Lunch will begin at the church immediately after the parade and will last until 2:00 P.M.

Enjoy your meal in the Incarnation Fellowship Hall, seats/tables provided. If the weather is favorable, eat outside, or take your boxed deliciousness to the park. While munching and viewing, check out homemade jams, confections, savories, and jellies that will be on sale.

Lunch-server volunteers donate their time and effort for the sake of improving lives, not only during holidays but all year long. For more information, contact the Church of the Incarnation at (828) 526-2968.

Caution: The Barbecue Lunch may cause extreme happiness!
