Happy Thanksgiving


My prayer is that you have enough food and family to share with those who have neither that all may be fed and warmed and give thanks and praise for the abundance of of our Most Abundant God.

Some have food. Some don't.
God bless the revolution of Jesus.

  2. The best moment came at Grace. Our tradition is to go round the table and everyone says one thing that they are thankful for. When we got to our three year old, much to our amazement, she understood completely. She brightened up and whispered, shyly: "Hugs from my family."

    Made my eyes sweat.
