An interfaith community Thanksgiving service was held at a local church in Westchester on Tuesday.

The crowd, made up of people of all backgrounds, put their differences aside and came together for the service at Church of the Magdalene in Sleepy Hollow.

"It's good to pause and thank God and our creator for not only the blessings, but just who we are as people, and the progress that we have made as a people," said the Rev. Timothy Wiggins.

The annual event was organized by the Rivertowns Clergy Association and was designed to be a celebration of unity.

"We don't have to agree on everything, maybe not anything, but we're brothers, we're sisters, we're siblings...so we're celebrating that tonight and we give thanks for that," said Rector Bill Baker.

A wide variety of religions were represented at the service.

"Yeah, we have Buddhist, Christian, Jewish, Muslim," Baker said.

In addition to giving thanks, organizers said attendees also got a chance to donate to a community food pantry at the service.
