THANKSGIVING DAY PRAYER

 

(feasting with the monks at Assumption Abbey)

HAPPY THANKSGIVING  2012!

 

Again this year the friars from the Prayer Fraternity will be joining our Trappist brothers at Assumption Abbey for Prayer and Thanksgiving Dinner;  this day is one of two days annually when the monks have a special feast inviting guests to join them in the Abbey for a meal and fellowship.

a THANKSGIVING DAY PRAYER:

With our hearts filled with gratitude and joy,

We thank You, O Lord,

For bestowing us with cherished friends and family,

For our health and prosperity,

For the majestic beauty found in nature,

For Your mercy and forgiveness,

And, above all, for bringing Your Word of salvation into our lives.

For these things, we are truly THANKFUL.   AMEN.
