Thanksgiving
The holiday of Thanksgiving is celebrated in the United States with family gatherings and traditional foods. The Church also has a special liturgy for this day. The Entrance Antiphon sets the tone for our religious observance, "Sing and play music in your hearts to the Lord, always giving thanks for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ (Eph 5:19-20). Eucharist means Thanksgiving and we should be especially grateful for this most sublime gift. We hope you will enjoy some of our recipes and suggestions for this day. Let's try to celebrate as Christians remembering to be temperate as we carve the turkey and eat the pies.

The following suggested petitions would make a nice addition to our meal prayers:

That the Church throughout the world will more vigorously thank the Lord for His kindness towards His children. Lord hear our prayer.

That the government of our beloved country will never forget to praise and thank the Almighty who is the generous Giver of each gift. Lord hear our prayer.

That those who suffer may recall that God still loves them and wants to lead them to unending peace in the next world. Lord hear our prayer.

That all Americans on Thanksgiving Day will be blessed with a fresh awareness of the loving Most Blessed Trinity from whom all good things come. Lord hear our prayer.

That those Americans who have no faith in God may be touched by grace this day and seek the Creator of the universe. Lord hear our prayer.

That the faithful departed will soon gather around God's altar in paradise where they will joyfully thank Him for ever. Lord hear our prayer.

Things to Do:

• Invite someone to dinner who has no place to go for Thanksgiving.

• If you have no other commitments volunteer to help serve Thanksgiving dinner at a place which is serving the poor.

My family, my country, my health, my husband and I having a job, a healthy son that brings us both a lot of joy, and a loving God in Heaven that I cannot even begin to pay back for all of goodness and mercy to me and mine.

Good health and peace of mind are two of God’s greatest blessings.

My family, husband’s job, God’s continued grace and a healthy pregnancy. I’d be even more thankful if the little guy would just come out already!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

I’m thankful to my Lord for him, my family, my country, and for the conservative principles and love of knowledge my father instilled in me.

I am thankful for our Lord, His Son, and the Holy Spirit.

I am grateful for my husband, who truly is the head of our family. I admire his bravery, intelligence and wisdom. I humbly thank God for allowing me to be his wife. I don’t know what I ever did to deserve such a wonderful man.

I am grateful for my children; all unique, beautiful and talented. They are my life’s work and my single greatest joy.

I am grateful to life in the best place in the world, to be surrounded by other Americans who love freedom and who understand that it is never free.

I am grateful for everyone who has, is, and will ever serve our great nation, for their sacrifice, bravery and dedication to freedom.

I’m grateful for Free Republic, for all Mr Robinson does to advance the causes of freedom and conservatism; and for everyone here, even those with whom I disagree.

I’m grateful for my husband’s continued health. I’m grateful that my job seems fairly secure in these times. I’m grateful my dad is still with us. I’m grateful for my three daughters and thankful that they are all productive citizens as well as good people. I’m thankful for God’s loving mercy and the gift of faith. I’m grateful that I survived cancer as a child and grew up to have a fulfilling life. I am thankful to be a conservative, traditional American. I’m grateful for FR and the e-presence of all the FReepers who add joy and laughter and spirituality to my days.

Thank you, Lord, for the gift of life and love.

I am thankful for my family, Free Republic and living in the United States of America. Although I am actually stationed in Italy at the moment. :) I guess that is why I appreciate the United States even more after visiting so many countries in the World...we are clearly the best of the best.
