Homemade pie, anyone? Where to fill your plate at a church dinner

Several Bradford West Gwillimbury and area churches are hosting meals, with all the trimmings, starting this weekend

Church dinners are a local tradition - not only fundraisers, but a way to bring community together for a shared meal. And where else can you get homemade pie these days?

There are a number of church dinners on the calendar coming up, starting this weekend.
