gratitude and giving thanks for what we are given by God. This weekend, as we
share in thanksgiving with family and friends, let us remember to say thank you
to those who prepare our food and who care for us. Let us also be thankful to
God for the many gifts around us that should His love 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.
