Thanksgiving Day - US

In the United States folk will be celebrating the Feast of Thanksgiving this Thursday - a tradition with its roots in the Feast of the Tabernacles of Israel, and the harvest feast of Rome, which was brought to England by the legions and to the US by the Pilgrims. Pray your day is happy and your travels are safe.

Thanksgiving Day

O MOST merciful Father, who hast blessed the labours of the husbandman in the returns of the fruits of the earth; We give thee humble and hearty thanks for this thy bounty; beseeching thee to continue thy loving-kindness to us, that our land may still yield her increase, to thy glory and our comfort; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Deut xxvi. 1, Psalm 145, St. James i. 16 & St. Matthew vi. 25
Homilies Featuring Chrysostom

seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you
