Taking a quick pause in all the PAINting, moving and cooking action around here to wish you all a Blessed and Happy Thanksgiving.
Please take time today to say a prayer for our many deployed soldiers, sailors, marines and airmen-- especially for their safety and swift return home. Also lift in prayer those family member that are here on the home front missing their loved ones on this holiday.
I'll close this post with the prayer that will be said before our dinner this afternoon and that accompanied loaves of bread that some very thoughtful ladies baked for our parish to share:
Gracious and generous God,
we come before you today with grateful hearts.
In the beauty and bounty of creation
we see the work of you hands.
In the loving faces around us
we know you own love for us.
May this meal nourish us and strengthen us.
We pray in thanks to you,
our God who lives forever and ever. Amen
