DUNCAN — Stew has a warming effect on just about everyone and after this winter, everyone may need a bowl or two.

The First Christian Women of First Christian Church in Duncan are having their annual stew dinner from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and from 5 to 7 p.m. Feb. 18.

The proceeds for the stew dinner will go to fund various outreach programs including the Toy Shop, Gabriel’s House, Texoma Camp and The Well.

Various other local and national missions are supported with funds received from the stew dinner.

Ann Loftin said she is expecting more than 700 people to come and enjoy the good home cooking.

Loftin said the group starts preparing by chopping vegetables on the Monday before the dinner.

The group continues preparations by setting up tables on the Wednesday prior to the stew.

The menu for the dinner includes stew, regular and jalepeno cornbread, drinks and dessert. Loftin said sugar free desserts will be available.

Tickets will be on sale until Feb. 10. Loftin said anyone interested in attending can talk to anyone in the church.

“Anyone who goes to First Christian Church should have tickets on hand for people to purchase,” Loftin said.

No tickets will be available at the door. Tickets are also available at the church office and The Well located at 913 W. Main.

For information, call the church at 580-255-6116.
