Thanksgiving Prayers

Categories: Thanksgiving
  • Prayers for Thanksgiving come from various cultures and faiths. Thanksgiving prayers reflect the holiday's theme of gratitude for the blessings in each of our life, and ask for blessings to be extended to us, our loved ones and the food you are about to enjoy. These prayers are not just for Thanksgiving, however; they can be said around the table for Thanksgiving dinner or any time of the year you feel thankful and blessed.
  • The Giving of Thanks

    All throughout the history of the American colonization there were celebrations of thanks giving during which explorers and colonists alike set aside a day to give thanks to God after surviving exceptionally difficult experiences. From the trials of Canadian explorer Martin Frobisher to the Plymouth Rock Pilgrims, these groups gave name to the holiday we celebrate today known as Thanksgiving.Twilight Bridge: History and Origin of Canadian ThanksgivingScholastic: The First Thanksgiving Feast
