Thus, it should not be surprising to us that the word for our highest form of prayer and worship in our Church, “Eucharist”, means “thanksgiving.” Thanksgiving is meant to be a way of life for a Christian. This week we celebrate a national holiday, Thanksgiving Day, for our nation’s founding fathers and mothers knew how important it is that we give thanks to God, as individuals and as a nation. You are encouraged to spend time on Thanksgiving Day, praying in thanksgiving to God. Our Masse of Thanksgiving will be: Wednesday, November 24, 5:30 p.m. at Christ the Good Shepherd, Saginaw
