Giving Thanks

On this day of Thanksgiving, we want to express our heartfelt gratitude for the remarkable work you do on behalf of women, youth, and children. Your dedication and compassion create ripples of change that profoundly impact lives. Thank you for being a source of hope and inspiration.

Join us in prayer:

Creator God, we give you thanks. We thank you for the community that we have with one another. We thank you for the opportunity and the space to gather. We give thanks for all that you have provided for us and for all that we have shared. We pray that our gifts and offerings to one another would be given and received with your abundant love.

May what we share, be it a meal, our time, our gifts, or simply our presence, be honoring and loving gifts to you as well. Teach us to better love one another. Teach us how to better love our neighbor as ourselves. Teach us how to better love ourselves. May our acts of kindness and love be received as our acts of worship to you, our loving God. Amen.
