Heavenly Father,
We gather before you today in Thanksgiving.
We thank you for the many blessings you have bestowed on us… Blessings, we sometimes take for granted:
We thank you for the love of our family and friends,
And remember those who feel alone today.
We thank you for the safe travels of the family and friends here,
And remember those who grieve the recent loss of a loved one.
We thank you for the gifts you have given us,
And remember those who are not able to use their gifts because of illness and injury.
We thank you for the freedom we are able to live in this great country,
And remember those who are serving so that we may live free.
We thank you for the food we are about to eat,
And remember those who will go without food this day.
We pray all this in our Brother Jesus’, name. Amen.
