The 2025 Day of Thanks at New Life Facility was a heartwarming celebration of connection, friendship, and community. What made this year’s gathering truly unforgettable wasn’t just the incredible food—though Waylon’s legendary mac and cheese and Laura’s smoked-and-baked turkeys definitely stole the show—it was the feeling of togetherness that filled the room from start to finish. Friends, families, and neighbors came together not just to share a meal, but to share stories, laughter, and a sense of belonging that made every moment feel special.
As delicious dishes lined the tables and familiar faces greeted one another with hugs and high spirits, the Day of Thanks became less about an event and more about a reunion of people who care deeply for one another. It was a day that highlighted the true meaning of community: showing up, supporting each other, breaking bread, and creating memories that last well beyond the holiday. The 2025 Day of Thanks at New Life Facility wasn’t just a celebration—it was a reminder of how powerful it is when friends come together with gratitude, generosity, and love.
