Friday, October 8th

DAY 1

MORNING PRAYER

The theme of our prayers this week has been gratitude and giving thanks for what we are given by God. Let us remember to say thank you to those who prepare our food and who care for us. 

God of Love,

You sent your son Jesus to teach us to share your love

with those in our family, neighbour and community. 

As we celebrate Thanksgiving,

help us to show gratitude to those who help us so much in life. 

Thank you for your many blessings in our life. 

Through Christ our Lord.   

Amen
