As a church family we will gather together with hearts of gratitude and praise.
The origins of Thanksgiving are in harvest festivals. It was customary to express gratitude for a bountiful harvest in the cultures of both the Pilgrims who sailed from England in 1620 and the Native Americans they encountered.
At its core, Thanksgiving is an expression of gratitude, a virtue that resonates deeply with the Christian faith. Gratitude is more than just the acknowledgment of blessings; it is a profound recognition of the divine benevolence and provision that permeates every aspect of our lives.
We will have a time of sharing praise to God for what He has done in our lives throughout 2024.
We are asking you as families or individuals to find a rock on which to write a word of gratitude that expresses your thanks to God. We will place these with the other rocks on the platform.
