CHAMPAIGN -- Members of a church want to make sure no one is alone or hungry on Christmas day. This is the third year the First Christian Church will be hosting a free holiday dinner.

Members will also give out goody bags for children. Last year, volunteers served more than 300 people from the community. Organizers hope even more will join them this year. They said anyone is welcome to come.

The meal starts with an appetizer at 12:30 pm, and dinner will be served at 1 pm. You're asked to sign up before December 20.

Reservations:
